Hey FreddieCouplesSlevin: How about hitting the long iron into the cup for a double eagle....gggg -------->BB has not lived through a bear market....maybe it's a "Buy the Dipper"? <--------- No, old BB was actually born before the 87 drop and used data from way back in the early 70s, so he is well aware of the bear. I just had a PrivateMes about something similar and up until the last 2 or maybe 3 years, I made more profit from the downward moves than the upward ones..... my puts outnumbered my calls by probably 5 to 1 and I sold short so much that two of my brokers called me "shorty".......gggg Trade the trend, and don't think you know more than the market is the philosophy by which I try to operate....... my long positions , if sold right now would be in the lower capital gains, well not ALL but 98 % (rounded off) Regards-------BenHogan"it's not who is perfect, but who makes the fewest mis hits who wins the tournament"Nemer edit--- I reread this and I don't intend any slight towards you or any others posting here........ I WISH I'D joined you on the short.......... but I found out a long time ago------- wishes and fishes.........
