Zeev is a little over my head, he seems to do OK with most longer term calls. As a daytrader I wouldn't know , heck I'm not good at daytrading and wouldn't know a good one . I do some short term trading like mostly 2 days to a week, and that only works when the market is trending up..which it's not doing at this time. I'm on hold now and wish I had stayed there before this last leg down started. ---- With the VIX and VIXN so low I knew I should have stayed 100% cash , ( which I was before last week ). ---- It's times like this that turn a short term trader into an investor. I'm still mostly cash and bonds however I won't put any more cash in stock unless I see some real panic via the VIX. --- I can't recall such a sorry market with such a low VIX. All I'm holding is INTC and AMAT, and it looks like I'm going to be holding them for a while. Jim
