LG: There has been various insinuations in this thread that bullish talk may be causing careless bull into buying into a bull trap. Let me disagree with you in a friendly manner.

For one thing bulls and bears alike do their buying based on their analysis that the timing is optimum when they buy a stock. This applies to anyone who is trading stocks, either long, intermediate or short term. If I am s long term player, I would certainly not take an intraday players advise to enter my positions. It would not make sense, would it?

If I were to buy a stock to hold for intermediate term play, would I have bought in five days ago? My answer is no.

Could I have bought 2 weeks ago? The answer is yes.
Would In hold this position until today? My answer to you is: Do you think I am crazy?

What would a long term player entry point be in this case? The answer is March 23.
Would a long term player buy a week ago? The answer is not on your live.

Now let me turn around those questions, and ask you this:

Would a bear short the market on March 23 and hold it till today?

I think those insinuations are very unfair. Please give these words some thought.

Regards,

Jaime
