>Yes. High put-buying is a contrary indicator.

Contrarian indications mean nothing in a mania. For 2 years, EVERYONE was betting the net stocks would soar, and they were all right. Only the shorts got killed.

Of course, in a bear market, many will make very successful short bets- and they'll keep getting "lucky" for a long time, just as the bulls got lucky in the previous two years.
