Maybe you're better suited to trade tech. Your timing does seem to be better there. As for SELLING the NG E&Ps and raising cash last Sept/Oct AND a few ST trading positions there at the beginning of the month, before the recent drop in those stocks? It's hardly debatable that it was the correct strategy. Perhaps some of the better ST traders here even shorted at those two turns. There are some very astute players here. But as for my conservative approach of just raising cash when it looks like a top might be close at hand, it's been very effective. As a result of not giving back MY GAINS, Q. it wasn't necessary for me to "MAKE UP FOR" losses with a lot of extra ST work to play catch up. Different strokes Q. Isopatch
