<<There's no point however to being obsessed with a market you don't want to be in, and bemoaning it. If it is causing you that much stress then get out, and get back in when you feel confident. It doesn't make any sense that you would be so scared of the market and yet posting endlessly about your fears. Be in cash, and enjoy your work, personal life etc...>> I guess I feel like if you fall off the horse you should try your best to get back on, instead of running to the barn. I guess I also feel like...and I think many others feel the same way.....I have lost so much this year I want to make it back, or at least recoup some of the losses. I know that will not happen sitting in cash. I have no idea if we go up or down, but historically, it says we rally nov/dec. I don't think it would be good for my mental health if I took the bath that I did, then pull out when we are supposed to rally.......again, I dont know if we do rally, but if I was on the sidelines during a huge rally, after taking the losses I have....well, it would just hurt that much more. So I am trying my best to stay the course....hold what I have...look for a little value....and hope we get a really solid rally. Have a great night keith
