Diamond, thanks... There is a saying, "Never confuse a bull market with brains". Working a down market is inherently more difficult than an up market. It takes what Tom Dorsey calls "an artist, a craftsman". I think the reason for this is because we believe in order to make money a stock has to go up. Actually, if you play a bear market correctly you have a higher percentage of making money than in a bull market. Sounds strange I know, but if you think about it, stocks go down much faster than they go up. I watch the indicators closely and let them tell me what is going on. I don't owe my correct calls to any brilliance on my part, I just know how to read the indicators and to trust them. I'm glad you are studying the book. Rethink signing up for the site. I learned by checking charts continuously. Invaluable. Take care, Jan
