I think maybe what he's trying to say is that just as it was the easier thing to do to make money going long in an uptrending market (like it was in the first half of 2000 in Canadian stocks) it would have been the easier thing to do to make money going short the last few months. Why fight the general trend even as a daytrader when it's easier to make money by going with the trend? Lola:)

I did use stops( thanks to your tutelage) buy and sell nothing worked . No sooner did my sells get hit then wham back up or no sooner did my buys get hit then wham plunge.Whipsawed to the extreme and insult to injury I had no less than 5 stocks halted within hrs. or next morning on open . Nicky's comments if one listened my have made one money by doing nothing. Buffett is the villain ,last year almost to the day he moaned about his performance the NAS started dropping Now almost to the day he gloated the Dow plunges. He is a great investor when the markets are bullish for his style.
