John,

Thank you much for your kind words. Two things: I post my insights on this board because there are many regulars here who have helped me understand the market's folly. If I can repay that in some small way I would be happy.

More importantly, with great humbleness I submit to you that luck had maybe 10% to do with that macro call. If I was relying on 90% luck to trade, I'd be broke and my very awesome wife would bolt in a heartbeat because of my stupidity. Great traders understand that fundamental market analysis begins with people, not financials.

I'm still long but did take some off the table today. Believe me, I'll be looking to add at the appropriate times.

Mike
