Seems pretty naive in my opinion to short now with the trend in the jobs numbers strongly favoring longs.
Shorting ahead of the jobs numbers in the past worked like magic only because the trend was on the way down. That trend has now reversed and shorting ahead of such reports is dangerous to your portfolio.

We have not gotten a +200 day in some time now but it the market may have trapped enough shorts the last 7 trading days to actually cause a +200 DJIA day.
In the Short-term the market became a little too enticing for the shorts to not enter and today they are paying the ultimate price for that entrance.
