Curiosity only, I couldn't remember when you made the call -- wasn't trying to ridicule you -- just was curious about the TA signals that turned you bearish then. If you'd rather not discuss -- no sweat.

Glad you've done well in the market. I know at that time there was lots of discussions of pitchforks and so forth -- wondered if you still employ essentially he same methods or not.

Just forget it if you'd rather. I'm somewhat interested in technical trading systems -- in the short term. I'm of the opinion that they tell precious little about the longer term. Just my own view -- but I would like to get better at guessing the short to intermediate term moves.

At that time you were so emphatic -- a lot of confidence in your prediction -- it failed, but that doesn't mean that you don't consider it still to be highly reliable right? Something that gets you in the right direction for 60 - 70% of intermediate moves could be quite profitable for instance.
