Chic is incorrect if he thinks that this board will press in the face of a sharp or prolonged rally. You'd hope so. When I started posting here last summer there were many war torn bears that went mega short into May and got a visit from RealMan. I'd like to think we are on top of things and know what we're doing, but that's no gaurantee we won't be made to look like fools in the end. I'd also make a distinction between yourself and the others. You day trade futures. Most of us here are more of the swing trader variety and being wrong is worth more than a few points on a futures contract. I'm just trying to keep an open mind and hope to avoid looking like a BearClown at some point.
