    I will change the trend. I started shorting today. Full force to shave off 10% of the market and then go sideways till October and then down another 5%.

  2. How nice it will be for 98% of all day traders to do their year end accounting on 12/31/2007 and find out they couldn't beat the SP500 :p

  3. Loading up my gun but Today is just the first of at least 7 to 10 down days. Not sure the % of drop per day, but We may see a dip close to 5% the worse case 15% to trap in shorts...but I see more of a 5% or little more pull back.

    :cool:

    Maybe that's because many have already beat the S&P and we're only in May. I'm up 20% YTD. Last year was over 125%.

    If one is a buy & hold "investor" then that approach is fine. But I was under the impression that ET was actually a trading site.

  10. Still time 2 buy

    I know market down a lot ..don't have to remind me

    Yes it may seem too early to buy this dip but-the technicals & fundamentals are strong and we're just seeing some profit taking.


    if your gonna go long don't take super leveraged positions since your losses are obviously amplified should the market keep going lower.

    We're just seeing some profit taking. The underlying trend will resume.
