mish. One of the reason I was/is long this rally, is your max pain analysis, which was right on last expiration. So thanks...

I have you bookmarked also mishedlo. Your work has been greatly appreciated. I was in the camp expecting this rally you called, but not this soon or powerful. Was caught trying to do some short term shorts on Friday and did not cover. Will hang on and add when I feel a top is in and ride back down. Personally I don't find any reason other than exuberance to fuel this much higher. No, I am not a perma-bear, just trying to go with market direction and sometimes missing signals that were not there.

mishedlo...I believe the fact that you accused limtex of only posting bullish messages was the reason I posted to you. So for you to then reply with reasons of why you are a short trader just proves my point of your bias and your agenda. So please.... "Zeev only plays the long side, why is it wrong for some to mainly play the short side? Zeev steps aside when he thinks the market is going down. Earlie does the same thing when he thinks it is going up. Does that make Zeev a bad trader cause he only goes long?" Well...I never said its wrong to be either a long or short trader. I don't agree with it, but you can do as you please. But its just a matter of using both avenues to increase your chances of making far more money. Why would you limit that ability?..it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. But on the otherhand, let me put it this way. If you had told me at nasdaq 5000 that you are mainly a short trader without ever going long, it would have been hard to argue with you. Being that the nasdaq had made such an obscene rise up to that point, a savvy trader would have shorted it and would have understandbly remained bearish for the duration of most of its move down. So lets jump to present day. You have a nasdaq that has lost almost 70% from its highs ( I know it was hugely overvalued) and if you want to throw in some of economic reasoning with it..there are signs that we are staging a recovery of some sort. Now...at this point..where do you think your most of your gains are gonna be made?...obviously you feel to the downside. If you think we could move much further down than up then more power to ya. I happen to think thats not the case..just from a technical point of view. Now again..it doesn't really matter what either one of us "believe"..for me its all in trading patterns and tech analysis. I try and leave the predictions to Ms. Cleo et al. So my emotional friend...its all what makes a market. You gotta love it huh? I take it GFY means...God for You?? <<gg>> TraderXx
