>just trade the trend
Yes, we (traders) understand that ... as Dennis said we backtest away
all of our bad ideas until we are left with the one good idea.
However, investors make the trend and they will often tell you in
advance, what they are going to do OR they will recycle previous
responses ..... we can use it as a warning but not a signal.
.... this is my first crisis ...it is a little exciting.... next time
will be ho-hum.
