Mr G and all RT'ers...
Just a question I'd like to ask the list, in general...
Gazing back at the posts over the past XX weeks or months [while we were
clearly in a down trend, bear mkt, whatever term you like...], I see a
tremendous amount of energy spent posting things like:
I assure you the Nasdaq will rally XX percent after making a low today...
My work says today is the low of the move and the markets will now rally XX...
I see on my charts that the market[s] have reached their bottom and should
now test XXXXX on the upside within XX days...
and on and on and on...
Why is so much energy spent trying to pick a termination of a down trend?
Why aren't there posts extolling the virtues of selling every rally while
we are in this beautiful downtrend? Where are the charts that show
tomorrow's potential sell area if we are lucky enough to get a rally in price?
Just an observation...Anyone like to reply or speculate?
Best,
Tim Morge
