<<El Nino effects>> I received some thoughtful, explanatory and helpful replies, including this one!! I am new to this thread, new to trading this stock, but not new to shorting or sweating out shorts in this market. One more question: if this is looking like a good trading stock for a while, what's the best strategy when it's moving up? Buy at the open and sell at the close? Or hold awhile until there's a down move at the open? And how many down days generally before it starts back up? Oops, that's three questions. anyway, I appreciate any insight that traders(as opposed to buy and holders or perma-shorts) might have. thanks in advance and good luck.
