Ajtj, mathematically, when in a downtrend, an up bounce will typically equal only 50-67% of the down slide, i.e. for any 80-100 pt bounce you get a subsequent 120-200 pt slide. So I am not even sure it is worth playing long bounces in a downtrend until that downtrend is reversed. As Zeev says playing it both ways causes lack of focus and confusion. What are your thoughts on that? BTW I really like the way you are thinking about market trends, bounces, etc.
