I hope everyone is doing well with the BIG BEAR. On a personal note I had bought puts too soon. Being early is my biggest trading problem. But today the BEAR forgave me and was very kind to me. Bull or bear, the most important thing is to know which market you are in and play accordingly. When you don't know which you are in and adjust your thinking, I gaurantee you will have problems. In my opinion the very best system for predicting turning points and market direction in every time frame is Elliott Wave. The proof of the pudding is in the tasting. I will remove that Bear in the IBOX when we reach the bottom near 600 or so. I may change bears just for variety. heh heh
