What I recall about that bottom was that it was a lower low "W". At the time, many were screaming it was a buy but there was so much uncertainty on if a "real" bottom could be made on a lower low. Even Jerry Favors was bearish until the recovery was half over.

EDIT to my earlier post. Just to clarify. When I say I lost it all. I did not go bankrupt or even lose all my trading capital but I did lose most of it and it was bad enough I had to add to my account to get going again. My case was a case of too much confidence and a failure to study fully the gravity of the change in leverage I was entering. a 3% drop in stock price can move an option down 20% or more depending on strike purchased.

Good Luck,

Lee
