  3. Actually I caught the very top of the QQQQ short this A.M. and just held till close.

    Not as good as the DIA long but a winner is still a winner.

  5. hmm,

    Today was a 100% guarantee up day from quite a few reasons.


    I see most people didn't see that.

    Although the insitutions did see that though as well as I did :)

  6. Well I really hope that you were long max margin and maxed your mortgage and credit cards, and any form of cash that you had access to--after all it was a 100% guarantee day! lol total craziness

    folks, get away from the habit for forming opinions, and trade and react to the price.

  9. I strongly disagree.

    Preparation sets apart the pro from the amateur imo.

    Let me qualify that by saying "Prepare to react" if you get my point.

  10. agreed samson, but this idea of 100% guarantees and things to that effect are disasters waiting to happen--that one day of being wrong often times leads to busts.

    A great weekend to all
