You guys, this thread is a 'cult'. The 'cult' is what failed you, and will fail you again, unless you learn from it. This is from a book I'm reading on called "The Psychology of Technical Analysis", pick it up from amazon.com. Listen to this stuff. If this thread isn't a destructive crowd, I don't know what is: Initially, the members of a 'wrong crowd' will feel the need to associate together for protection. They will try to confirm each other's views as being correct, and emphasize the errors in the 'right crowds' case. They will take any information, and turn it positive. Objective data.. There will be a tendancy to ignore the right crowd's view and launch personal attacks. The 'wrong crowd' will commiserate with one another and emphasize the 'long term'. The crowd will eventually lose touch with reality, as their views of reality diverge completely from what is actually occuring. wow!! cool stuff!! hmm.. kp
