My words may be too hash:-p But I think the best way to profit is to follow. Of course, there are people who do make big profit on predicting, which is nothing wrong if one can control stop loss etc. However, I think it is hard to keep that way. Most people who did that eventually failed and fall hard as far as I know. In my feeling, if you follow the market without predicting, other things like profit target, stop loss etc. will be much easier to handle mentally. If you try to predict, there is always questions like when to take profit and when to cut loss -- which is really hard to manage IMO. well, if you follow the market, such things become simple and straight forward. Strictly speaking, people can argue spiral is also one kind of predicting. However, its rules are so loose(eg. market can either go up or down from here and the spiral theory is still intact.) thus I think it can last longer. OK, enough talk, time to head to the beach for my ritual spiral walk! Good luck to all!
