Happy, Zeev will probably be right about the Christmas rally.....I am probably the best contrarian indicator around....When I get nervous and start to short, it means the shorts are ready to cover, when I go long, go short....I have not yet plugged in my TA on the overall market itself, and perhaps that has been my downfall...
I took some pretty sizeable losses the past two weeks going long....
The lesson I learned again, is take losses quickly, and don't try to day trade when you are on your computer only a few hours a day....You must position trade....

I looked quickly at CPQ.....I am looking for more downside....There seems to be good support in the 51.42-51.75 area...Unless the Christmas rally zooms in upon us, we should test this level....
One stock I am tempted to go long on is ORBKF....Those shorts are going to have to cover soon, and we could get a bump of a few points...If I were a betting man, I would say they cover in the 27.50-28.00 level....You might even be able to make 5 or 6 points on that one should the Christmas rally develop...

Regards, Mark
