<DIV>Interesting patterns, however differences in breadth patterns coupled with 
my current wave counts (all sessions) suggest a little rally falling short of 
1448 followed by one more leg down which should take out the 05Jan low, probably 
no lower than 1368. I'm looking for this to happen before 08Feb and if the 
breadth models turn up, I will be looking for a very nice rally. A close above 
1448 would suggest to me that the correction is over and that a major rally 
should follow.</DIV>

I agree with Dennis.  The point of maximum risk is when you enter.  If you 
enter with 3 positions you should be seeking the maximum return on all three. 
 Otherwise your system is not operating at its full potential.  However if 
someone wanted to scale out as a matter of personal preference that's fine.  
We all have to find methods of trading that are comfortable for us.  This is 
often more important than trading the optimum strategy.  We should, however, 
understand the consequences of our decision to trade that way.  In this case 
(trading 3s) we would be taking a full measure of risk for less than the full 
measure of return.
