Is it safe to say, that a positional trade (or even a longer term trade), is no different from a daytrade + or - three days except for the compression of time?

Precisely, even the charting techniques that apply to TA can be directly related to daytrading. Stan Weinsteins books are a great example of that. Take all you see in his book over an LT chart, and apply it to a minute chart.

3 day 50% retracements are not unusual, but instead of basing it on the value of the stock, base the retracement on the correction value. That is to say, if a stock falls from $6.00 to $4.00, then $1.00 is more than possible on a retracement...but not all the time...if that was the case, you could just buy "everything" and wait to make big moola!

I still say 2750 Nasdaq is the bottom!
