I've got a little MTW, but the waterfall declines in many stocks of late really haven't been that good to the trend-following bear (which I am). I believe in the bear case, no doubt, but I know better than to fight trends and wait for them to develop. But the declines in many of my targets have been straight down, leaving little in the way of low-risk entries. I put together less than half my standard position thanks to the extreme caution I've been exercising due to wounds sustained trying to short into the early days of the 2000 bear. The bounces then were vicious, and the scars run deep. I ended up making good money off the whole affair, but the early days aren't fond memories to say the least.
