Anyone, traders or investors, any views on NXT? Will NXT may go up to 1100 before the turn. Is it time to build up shorts?

Good Afternoon all.
Well then seen as the NDX has been the dominant index this week, going to take a look at it.The #s to watch are support at 1290 will see what happens there at the open, then 1273/71 under that will open up a trip to 1255/50. Resistance above is at 1298 over that # is Bullish, then 1308. Interestingly for the Ndx the QQQ tracker put/call had a slightly bullish reading on the close which is Bearish if built upon.
OEX $-weighted put/call @ Tue Jul 8 16:20:00 2003: 0.59 (calls: $11928900; puts: $6984310).
QQQ $-weighted put/call @ Tue Jul 8 16:10:00 2003: 0.80 (calls: $5084550; puts: $4091100).

The NDX added its first 200 in over 60 trading days now in the last 6 trading days it has added 100 points, mental, doesn't mean it cant go higher though. Watching 9150 area Dow moves to the downside been defended around there recently.there now lets see, after that 9120.
