[RT] Re: S&P

Three factors at work here: established bull trends in equities (weekly
chart), ND (futures) has been relatively stronger than SP, and huge
average range (AR) in ND makes money management difficult. SP is the
weaker of the two, so I consider it preferable for shorting not to
mention that the AR is tighter so I have better money management. Yes,
the ND will be a faster and sharper decline when the top is in but
anyone shorting the last several tops for a position trade had very
tough sledding. It's all a matter of time frame - were I a day trader, I
might hunt for the top in the ND with very tight money management.
