hi oofer- long time no talk. it's good to get a post from you. i've been reading about your market trading recently. sounds like you're in the zone... and have the market pegged for now. good work dude. i think i'm on the same wavelength as you and mr. hammer. i bought some puts on tyco about 10-12 days ago after they'd run up for 5 days in a row. sold them last friday for a nice gain. i'm thinking about scalping the qqq's in a similar manner if they climb a little more. i feel safer going short on a rally these days than going long on a dip. how 'bout you? if the market's up on monday, i'm going for it. we probably arrived at the same place through different theories, i.e., i think the economy and the market are doomed until we get a "regime change" in the whitehouse, and perhaps you're watching the tape and the charts and the mood of wallstreet... but it doesn't matter, they both seem to be good indicators to put us on the right side of a trade for the time being, no? who's right? financially it doesn't matter, but personally, at least I get to follow my heart. <G> i think voltman's still hanging on to his "power of the houses" theory -- that one seems to be a hard system to trade on these days. as to your answer to "is" and "alone" it points out the existence of different realities and paradigms. i live in two paradigms. one is the popular view of "i" as an individual and the other is the less popular "metaphysical" view of "i" as a collective "one". it is harder than hell to debate when you live in both. anyway, thanks for not putting me on ignore. yer fren, -polvie
