I have hated this market for over 2 years. I can see no reason for it to be
trading where it is right now. I can give you many reasons to sell this
market, only one, greed, to buy it. That does not mean that, as a trader, I
can't trade both the upside and the downside of this market, and the stocks
or futures that make it up. That is what trading is all about. I don't
know prechter, I have never read his letter, but I believe that he has
recommended both buys and sells in this market, even though he screams,
watch out the sky is falling. The system that I use always gives me 2
trades. One up and one down. I am very seldom surprised. It does happen
though. Ira.
