RtS, right now I find it easier to try to anticipate the next index drop by simply looking at the index itself [duration of last up-leg, how close to upper trend line, BBs]. Not that I'm trading the waves, though. Gottfried

<This is bearish> Not a chance. Even if you begin to think there is a chance, the 3pm ramporama will prove you wrong. Draw yourself a little line across this chart and see if we don't close at 2120 tomorrow. Been up 20 every day this week so far. All nice and controlled, nary a decent tradeable dip or blip. Why stop Friday. And then why not double it up each day next week. finance.yahoo.com^IXIC&t=5d The pile in continues in fuller force. Nothing was learned from the last four years except how to push the 'enter' key faster and with ever amazing abandon.

RTS, today I sold full positions in 6 of my 18 holdings and decreased several other positions by 25-50%, all to realize profits. I have generally done well in early January, subsequently loosing much of those gains around the 12-14th. Perhaps I am becoming less of a pig and old age is setting in. I reached my high point on 12-1-03, falling hard in early December, now fully recovered. I am protecting profits/positions, only holding and adding to a few selective stocks. Eddie
