Tony, I'm telling ya, you would be an awesome shorter <g>. ha! I think then my shorts would go up! (wait, that doesn't sound right) Someone could make a killing off doing the opposite of me. I've actually considered that. Lots of traders say they sell too soon, etc... So find somebody in a slump, watch their picks, and do the opposite. g I think I'd feel like a vulture tho... I've learned one thing, go with the winner not the 2nd or 3rd. absolutely. At least if a trade goes horribly wrong with a big guy, you can wait a couple months and have a good chance to get out with a profit. I'll quickie trade the 2nds and stuff, but nothing over a couple days. Thinking about go see Notting Hill with my wife. Did you see this one? yup. shrug Basically it was another 4 weddings & a funeral. I think everything hugh grant is in is pretty much exactly the same. It was humorous in places, just nothing special. My gf liked it tho. So you might have to go if your wife makes you... g llater, Tony B

Okay... Somebody had to have dreamed something preceding yesterday. Either that, or all the traders woke up with tummy-aches. Ouch. Even my small-timers moved (down of course). Nice thing about this though is that, I'm ready for the down-turn this time (mostly cash). I'll wait for TA to signal buys on the top tiers before I jump in. So, as far as I'm concerned, I hope we plummet! Woo hoo! Well... Not too much. G Did you short up a storm yesterday Jon? Only issue I'm holding in my trading account is MINI. It looked to be on a run, but stalled exactly when I bought (of course). Still, it's not going down (yet), so I'll give it a couple more days. Other than that, I'm all cash... llater, Tony B
