Jack, I missed the target once again!
We have a saying in Dutch:
"Niet geschoten, altijd mis". . . (If you don't shoot you miss every time)
It's a bit of a contradiction. I would say: "If you don't shoot you can't miss". It's the safe way out for people that do not want to risk anything. Like: "People that don't work don't make mistakes", but also they do not learn anything new. My offer was of course half way "tongue in cheek" but half way serious. I would take up the role of a "broker" for a single experiment!
On this FOREX strategy I am also learning more as I go.
Today we are likely witnessing the beginning of the sell-off season.
I rather doubt it. I heard today that the mini rally was over and stock prices dropped today in Europe generally about 3 %. Maybe you heard this news as well and think that one should sell now before the prices drop 10%
Likely we are near a good time to buy again . . .I think they might even drop up to 10 % and then they will rise again by 20% and so we will cycle to a new high in 5 years, or so, so that every person except AIMers, the very poor and the professionals are elbowing themselves to the stock market doors to buy over-prized stocks.
Read my lips!
In 5 years nobody will remember I said this so nobody will take me to task for being wrong, if my prediction does not come out.
