Picking bottom vs suicide mission

I can't think of a better quote than this...

"The market can go a lot lower than you can remain solvent" - Mark B Fisher in "The Logical Trader"

 

Too true.

 

You can try to pick bottom so long as you use a vehicle where you can utilize stops effectively... like stock index futures.

You'll probably get some stinky finger, but you might get a big reward, too.

 

that's why so many Falling Knife Catchers are no long posting here.
