Jim, I m sorry I am unable to satisfy your request every time, sometimes I have enough information to call it on the hour (last Wednesday, for instance) and sometimes I don't, but for you, I expect a positive day before the end of this week. Actually, I had mentioned yesterday that I expected Friday to be up and the turn to be late Thursday, in a prior post (#reply-17491842).
To satisfy your request fo more "tight predictions", look for instance my comment yesterday on what to expect today (#reply-17492665, #reply-17491506.)
Now, I would not mind that much your pointing the failings of the turnips, I am the first to admit when they err. However, if you were not so "tight" and looking only to their failing, you would be magnanimous in admitting their successful call for a good bounce from the 1560 area to the spring second top in May with a max in the 1757/70 area. You don't have to do the search, I let you know that the turnips were quite ambivalent as to how far that bounce would go and took the freedom to suggest three areas (1696, 1728/33 and the top range of 1757/70). I am quite positive that you would view the fact of their not taking one of these as the only target, to be another "failing". I can live with that. <g>).
Good luck to you, I hope you covered those shorts on BLUD, you mentioned you were going to short it around $14, but you have to abide by a lesser standard and don't feel you should tell us to "cover" when you go wrong. You are quite right, the turnips have to answer to a "higher authority" (vbg), and when they err, they do not delay admission of guilt.
