Haven't tried that one. LOL

Greg. I will harp one more time about tick count if you do not mind. It hit -1325 (near panic today)
I did not buy cause the STTI sucked.

Watch for another bad day, or 2 or three or whatever the hell it takes. When that STTI goes solidly below one, at least a "local" bottom will be in if nothing else. I am hoping for a mid-day reversal cause I will be scared shitless to buy any gap up.

Frankly I was amazed that you felt that last runup from 2500 to 3000 was sustainable. No Greg retest calls although I was screaming for them. 100% gain in a few days on some stocks, now vanished. Ka put. Was even more surprised when you bought JNPR on a "magical mystery" trip to 200 - LOL.

Not trying to poke fun. What I really want to do is concentrate more on timing and taking profits off the table better, both long and short. I got in my PUTs too too early, and you held your longs too too long.

With all the knowlege here, that was not a good performance from either of us, but especially me. I am very very hard on myself. Rode BRCD PUTs practically into the ground. Very bad decision. At least I did not panic at the bottom (your top) LOL.

This is a traders market now. More so for longs than shorts. LTSH would have worked great this past week, but I only got 15% of the available points on the stocks I selected. Made $, but certainly not a Zeev-like performance.

Perhaps you do not want to trade, but for me it is fun.
Holding a short and watching them fall to ZERO is lot's of fun.

Comments?

PS I will buy that book.
I am reading everything I can get my hands on right now.

Could our mutual feelings of continual dumbfoundedness be the sign of a bottom?
