    MAYBE\ a bear market downtrends makes bottoms every day. Good place to take some profits again.
    Something else\ I enjoyed a QQQ candle chart, good 30 minute chart monthly downtrend in MAY 9,2002 bear. Good downtrend , good volume but it gapped up one day about 3.33% + went up about 10% that day.
    So i like to help market makers + me ; exit some entries also.:D:D[NOT a prediction+ sure ain't aiming for a QQQ or SPY 10% loss X 2 or 3]

  4. adding money each day to my 3 trading accounts @ TD, IB and Morgan.
    Obviously no need to catch a LT bottom as once it is in there will be a LOT of time to jump on board; but I assume we all looking for a long "win" - so why not nail a large reversal day and catch 10-12% upside over the next 2 weeks ?

    We will see.

  5. So that imbeciles like you get all stressed-out and offer some BS opinion. What you asked is like asking: why do you care about picking an 80-1 shot to win Kentucky Derby. It's just gambling. That what trading really is.
     
  6. It's not hard to nail a large reversal day, you don't need to pick the bottom for it.
     
  7. Sounds like you just bought the dip and the dip kept dipping.
     
  8. My apologies for calling someone an "imbecile."

    But why would I post anything unless I was fairly sure about what I opined.

    Fairly sure? Based on what?

    Bull market last for multiple years but
    still people expect anything resembling
    the bear to last just a couple days.
