Let it be noted he is NOT for free.
Please tell me you don't invest on basis of sentiment polls.
I have seen a lot of shorts crushed/annihilated that believe a overly bullish sentiment is a short signal.
With those charts i can so you several examples where shorts became roadkill.
I remember when near everybody relied on them for shorting, well those shorts vanished---wonder why????????????

But i don't discuss them because when you go to the effort of actually showing specifically the times they DESTROYED shorts there is too many that DO NOT listen.
Biggest thing i have learned on these boards in trying to remove a mindset with actual detailed backtesting is a huge to a waste of time.Max
