Yeah, well I understand what he is saying but it's more complex than that. It's not a "buy here, sell there" scenario. These things are setup to make money so when they lose they reverse. They don't reverse because of the "right" reasons all the time. They reverse because they are designed to kill an obvious error. A system could lose a bundle then make some of it back because everything fell into place. But to trade against it is to trade for the wrong reasons. $%^##@@$%%^. I think you know what I'm saying. I would not trade 180 degrees to a system any more than I would bet the longshot at the track simply because most people lose money gambling.
