By rational, I meant predictable -- i.e., that every dip has been met with buying, particularly since January. So, I should have expected that this dip, too, would be met with buying. I am not comfortable being long. But I'm also not comfortable being short. The candles tonight should show hammers all over the place. I usually look at that as indicating the beginning of a run.

Hi Rudy and all...... First, my apologies for what feels like and must seem like abandonment. I have been out-of-town and computerless for most of the past month. Actually, I have been in town a few days (very few), but have been so swamped playing catch up at work that even reading, much less posting, has been a near impossibility...actually read a few today for the first time in a month... My e-mail inboxes are huge....my SI subject lists show thousands of unread posts....I now have some idea how Rudy must have felt after being gone for several months. Enough of that - I have only looked at (but not read) the past weeks posts and it looks like the contest died......too bad, it was worthwile in my opinion. My how things change...APM has really tanked...it has probably made some lists of stocks trading below book value....again, too bad...maybe it is time for APM and the industry to undergo some massive reorganization and consolidation. My ancient (some month) 40 calls look almost ridiculous. Unfortunately, I am leaving town again tomorrow - hopefully won't be gone for more than a few days this time - but given the way these trips have gone lately, it is as unpredictable as the market. I have really been hoping for a nice 500-800 point correction in order to shop for bargains (assuming I ever again find the time to do so) and put some cash to work - based on the close today, I may get some more time before having to do so. Good trading to all..... Troy P.S. - I have suffered serious trading withdrawal having only traded one day in the past month or so.....makes me even less likely to ever give up my proverbial cancer sticks....
