Zeev, <Now you tell me what is so wrong or "consistently wrong" with these calls.>
Isn't it obvious, Zeev? If you're not calling the exact top or the exact bottom right down to the day, you are "consistently wrong."
No need to defend yourself, Zeev, though I do appreciate the detail in which you laid out your recent history of calls. I'm sure any naysayer can find some balls-to-the-walls strategy and beat your Turnips on occasion. But as for me, I'm learning how to balance capital preservation over capital appreciation. You see, I got into investing during the supreme bull market of the late 90's, and back then, capital preservation only meant a missed opportunity for more gains. Now that I've seen my portfolio drop by a large amount (luckily no margin), I'm learning to temper my greed with discipline.
By the way, remember the good old days of Rambus? There's a stock whose technicals we'll probably never see again. Kind of funny looking back at that now.
