Jenna sure do your thing...anything i can do to help the cause..."cause we need the money" for everyone<VBG>... ADX i use it exclusively with vol, and simple 20emas and 60emas, on all time frames...very important to move back to the 15-45 to see longer timeframes using the same indicators... a reading of 50-60 or so is overbought area... also..fwiw..a reminder to all Gemmers... CMGI...WILL SPIN OFF ALTAVISTA IN JAN...we should begin to nibble on long Calls for Feb/Mar...and sit onthem.. i'm expecting a ballistic runnup in to Jan...buy the dips here on all retraces....

Jenna: I'll share a technique I developed quite by chance many years ago (I think I was smoking a funny looking cigarette at the time, and I DID inhale) that helps spot shorts. Because we've been conditioned to buy, we can get fairly accomplished at spotting "bottoms". But tops are often tough. So on this day when I was smoking and giggling and munching I happened to take a chart that I thought might me topping, turned it upside down and held it in front of a mirror. Don't ask why I did this, I can't remember. It looked like a Great Buy! Thus, it was really a terrific short. I called it the "Mirror Effect", told everyone who'd listen about my discovery, but it never "took". I use a daily chart...and it works for me, though it's not really necessary to smoke "funny" cigarettes while standing in front of the mirror. (Lee)
