Covered CNCX at 21 5/8 & went long at 22. Maybe a bit too soon :-(

Bad timing cost me almost 4 points on CMDX yesterday (in that case, didn't go long). Woke up this morning & thot - that was finding a bottom (on CMDX) that I was watching yesterday. It got to support & (while I was waiting to see if it would go through) it paused for an hour or so, then reversed FAST. In a good market (context). Today, covered CNCX, it reverses and....stops :-)

Today's Market Timing Comments
For morning of 10/20/99: The indicators (mostly the equity put/call ratio) still indicate that large market gains are very likely in the near future. What continues to be uncertain is whether that will come immediately or after a drawdown of two to three percent.
