Hi RR, probably won't do anything--having painters in to paint the entire place, and dealing with taxes, so I can't focus on the market. Although I am watching gold, for a retracement, tho. I am still a person who finds it hard to short, psychologically I tend to swing trades on the long side. I realized its important to go with your own internal biases, or you will be uncomfortable and maybe trade badly. Here's a few nuggets from Teresa's newsletter this a.m., which excerpted some online conversation/transcripts from the room this earlier this week: Teresa_Lo: Because civilians don't understand that trading is the same as hunting. Teresa_Lo: You can only shoot if the target pops up. Teresa_Lo: And sometimes nothing pops up for a long time. Teresa_Lo: When the market is going sideways, etc. Teresa_Lo: The bottom line here is that we can only make how much the market allows us to make. Teresa_Lo: So when the market is slow like it is now, and even relatively illiquid, we CANNOT trade more. Teresa_Lo: We HAVE TO trade LESS.
