It would help us understand the apparent dichotomy if Bob would explain the signs that led to the failed CTR call Good luck! I've looked, others have looked and there were some signs but they went away in a few weeks anyway. In addition, basic signs such as the 20 EMA moving under the 50 EMA is a big sell signal. There were some oversold indicators but they dissipated in November which was a double sign of trouble. That's the true head scratcher and the sign of an amateur trader I hear. The market failed to do what he expected so, instead of cutting things short and taking a moderate loss, he tried to make what happened fit into his predictions. The odd thing is that he kept doing that month after month for 6 months. It was nothing short of bizarre.
