The Duke of York, he had ten thousand men.....  remember the nursery rhyme?

It is the name I gave to a market which rises to a nice peak and then descends to the bottom again.   Money up, money down.   A nice way to make it.  Conversely, if you look at today's chart, you will see that the market went down (to within a tick of my target) then reversed and is now back to almost where it started.  Personally, I have taken my profit on the return trip at yesterday's high - but it may go higher, or stall or come off.   But half a Big Point down and half one up, is as good a day for me as I can expect and I rarely push to the limit.  It is what I call a $1,000 day - and a day when your stop was never under threat.  Nice...

We might even end up with a long legged Doji and if we get a big down day tomorrow....???
But if it is a big up day, then Ben is still very much in the money - and it may be a nice day for yours truly.  Who knows.  The day will tell...
