Any reasonable TA would have gotten us out of AMAT near 70.</i. why not at 110 within $5 of the high. If one chooses to only weight the Technicals, why focus on this sector? Fundamentals relating to growth are irrelevant. Just search for a nice chart pattern and pile in, on or whatever. As I said in my first post, it takes differing opinions to make a market. I need the TA guys to allow me to make a buck. e.g. I bought MSFT on Monday despite a horrid chart that didn't appear to have any bottom. That's a 17% return with today being settlement day. Smarter guys than may are up over 20% in the same time. If everybody adhered to TA, there'd be only two stock prices: $0.00 or $ Infinity. Disrespectfully yours, :^) Ian.
