Joe
thanks for the response
please understand it's not WHAT you are saying (I often agree) but HOW

yours>>>
Dan,

You
say that you don't try to pick bottoms but
your
words imply that is what
you
are doing here.
Your
strategy appears flawed to me because, first, you mention no stop loss strategy if
you
are wrong. And, second, if are "selling off on the rallies",

your
approach is even more one-sided without loss management. In other words,
you

are suggesting limited gains with limit-less losses. Rarely does this work and especially since you are trading against the longer term trend the odds are against you

modified

Dan, I understand the approach you utilize but when ONE severly limits the upside potential while leaving the possible downside losses just has not worked in this market for a very long time
one day this might change but not for now
all the best
etc etc etc
