Dan,

Deviating a bit from your discussion let me add the following. Anymore, lots of people might consider themselves traders, some just not full time. But I think a high number of the part timers, who may have smaller accounts, don't play the short side. I'd venture to say that even some full time traders only go long, which I don't comprehend. I recall lots of people last year saying how well they did through early May and then didn't do so well for a few months. Seemed to coincide with a great run overall in the market, followed by some short term down trends and more choppiness.
