Yes we basically mean the same thing With any investment I am always looking at the best/worst case scenarios based on a combo of TA and FA. I am never interested in situations where the upside/downside risks are equal rather I am looking for situations where the upside is at least double that of any downside. This is a constant process. As stocks become extended based on all factors one must ask themselves not if the stock is going higher but the following: 1) What is the ratio of reward/risk going forward? 2) Is there a better ratio some place else? The reason I do not favour U and BM stocks here is not because I am calling a top but because the ratio of upside/downside is not at all good. The downside risk back to weekly MAs is more than any potential IT upside in the stocks. At this point the risk/reward in some PM stocks and energy is superb. When this changes I will change. It is a market of stocks not a stock market.
