Great post, James! Never thought I'd be classified, but I actually felt spoken about reading the article. I am of that 1/2 of 1% of 401Kers spoken of in this post. I'm not a day trader, but one of the "unknown" primarily internet based traders with a day job, and I'm waiting to learn much more before I start playing with derivatives like stock options. I moved my 401K from stock index 500 to bonds four weeks ago, which had always been in the stock index fund before that. Guess this makes me a "timer" by the classifications given out there. Also went from a large long position on the market to a large net short position on the market at and around that point. I'd prefer, over "timer" to be called a "zero momentum player of stock versus time curve inflections". I guess two syllable words are easier for the press to remember. Thanks for the good read. regards, -- Eric
