George I understand what you mean...

80% of people are better off to buy & hold - never an arguement there. That is my basic style; Unfortunately a little mistake in June & July forced me into being a ''trader'' <VBG>.... what do they say about a silver lining in every cloud...

I just see some very predictable situations here. First there are huge short positions in the Oilpatch. So when we get a Rally based on emotion - which is what a ''bet'' on '' what OPEC will do'', is; we will get a magnified move up imho. So I will take profits on the magnified highs.

...and as sure as what goes up too fast - will come down even faster; I will be prepared to buy new lows as well if OPEC does not cut.

good luck - see you at OSX 100+ by June 2000 and 125+ in 2001.
