You've brought up an interesting point.  Systems that worked great in the
bull market are probably failing miserably in a bear market.  "Real
Traders" know this, but probably not the dumb slob who shelled out $1,000
for a single trading system which only works in bull markets.  Yeah no
wonder the vendor can claim "50%" profits per month.  In a trending,
market the anyone can make money.

Now that the old rules have slipped away a lot of green or complacent
traders are gonna be mighty confused and fraustrated as the tools they
once relied on turn into the emporer's new clothes.
