I also disagree with #10. Fine if you're trying to preserve wealth, but if you've done your research 25% positions don't trouble me. Of course I've been higher in the past, but less need for that now.
With #3 if the whole sector is in the process of bottoming and it's ignoring bad news and has been basing a while then I tend to disregard this one as well. You're never going to catch the absolute bottom, but sometimes the only thing that is required is time (HUI 45).
Otherwise a pretty good list. Agree w/your comments on #4 as well.
