Hi MM,

Well now, sorry for getting so abrupt. Just trying to find out who I am responding to. Looking for the real players here.;-))))))))))))

So let's look at the curve. Let's take a stock that was at 20, it has fallen to 10. You buy it at 10 expecting it to go to 10+ but instead it continues to fall. Now there is a point that you determine that this is going to go lower before it goes higher. Why???????? You bought it before it bottomed. No one really knows where the bottom is of any stock. Now you bought it at 10 but it has gone to 8. It moves up but never moves above where you bought it. Then it moves back down. Now it continues to do that. You are on the wrong side of the curve. If 10 is the top an you are in at the top or higher, then you are on the wrong side of the curve. So sometimes you have to sell at the entry or take a lose if you want to be on the otherside of the curve an make the money on the moves to the upside. That is where the T/As come in. They can tell you if you are on the wrong side of the curve. JMO. You always want to be on the back side of the curve. You make no money unless you are lucky on the topside.

So MM, I hope this answers your question from my point of view.;-)))))))))
