Hi James,

Interesting post. I'm right until I'm wrong. I do appreciate your sensitivity, but it's not really needed. Honestly, I detect an element of sarcasm in your post, am I wrong?

BTW I've still got a profit and if I get stopped out, so what? Remember, this is only a game. It's not to be taken seriously. And, there's nothing like being wrong every once in a while to keep things interesting. But, the trade is still on and with all due respect to the author of the referenced article you posted, if he knew what he were saying, he would be trading, not writing.

I'm having a great weekend. My wife and I just came back this afternoon from looking at a home on the beach in Manalapan, Florida, the better side of Palm Beach, and we're probably going to be taking it for six months beginning in March to see if we really want to buy it. I like living on the ocean. I hope to close that deal this weekend. You should see it.

GZ

To myself; Well I was correct Friday ; the markets are up today
this sure don't look anything like an extended up-trend, asia is
mixed this morning, the re-gains in the oil sector will sooner
or later give way, and we will go tumbling down again. For the
time being there is a lot of pain being caused to the shorts.
How much of a rally we will get is hard to tell, calling a
top is harder than catching a falling knife, they both operate
about the same way, except the upside potentual has a sort
of unlimited risk to shorts, were the downside can't go below
zero. This rally doesn't look very strong, some selling
into it. Good time to haul in , and just wait for
better signs.
Jim
