I'd be curious (and impressed) if anyone, anytime in 2000, predicted NTAP in single-digits in 2001. I wouldn't be particularly impressed, because there is no way to predict things like that so far out. If someone got it, it would be luck, not astute predictive powers. Similarly, if someone predicted tomorrow's lottery numbers, I wouldn't be particularly impressed, because I'd know it was just a guess. Now if someone had the ability to do that day in and day out, that would be impressive. As for the post you link to, well, you know what they say about broken clocks. A lot of perma-bears are running around saying "I told you so." But haven't they been saying that since the Naz was below 1,000? Listening to their advice is still terribly unprofitable. Do you know who Manuel Asensio is? He can predict big stock declines pretty well, but only in obvious scam stocks, not in more "respectable" issues. I really like his attitude and his research.

OT Jacob Snyder: I still post on SI, I just don't post my work. The flame wars were not on MDD. However, you are right I was suspended. I was suspended for simply posting to or about those that continued to insult and ridicule me, that was the reason. I have the pmail from SI Jeff to prove it. It seems it is ok on SI to posts vile vulgar insults, but don't post links to the posts and complain publicly. The unfair enforcement of the SI Terms of Use is why I no longer post my work on SI. A lot of petty jealous individuals populate message boards. A lot of vile vulgar individuals populate SI, in fact some of them have been encouraged by SI Admin by allowing the practice to continue for years. I know this may come as a shock to you, but all longer-term moves start out as first an intraday move followed by extending into a short-term then a medium-term move, etc. I have found it is not necessary to know the overall extent of a move in advance, what is MOST important is to be on the right side of those moves. I have posted my translations several times before on the MDD thread, but for your benefit I'll post them one more time. Intraday = Minutes/Hours to a few Days Short-Term = Days to a few Weeks Medium-Term = Weeks to a few Months Longer-Term = Months to a few Years Long-Term = Years to when ever... I would appreciate it in the future, that when you feel the need to defend yourself, you do not do so by attacking me. LG
