Sry. I was just trying to point out, IMO, the fact that any bull left standing right now has been beat into submission let alone have any "strutting around confidence" left at this juncture. just my take. seems like bears are more insistent on dispensing fear out right now in wake of todays market action. who knows what that means and whos going to be right or wrong. i sure dont, as you already pointed out.

Yeah everyone has a different take on sentiment.. which is why I use real $ numbers. You're better off using an objective, quantifiable metrix instead of gut feel.

So then you won't mind telling us when you entered long and what your stops are right? Or what your performance was last year during this chaos in real money, not imaginary money using this sentiment system of yours?

I really did not mean to start this brawl guys. All I said was that 8000 was holding up well after getting a brutal pounding. It may fall tomorrow. I haven't the faintest idea. My buy & hold portfolio will stay fully invested period. The trading portfolio will stay invested until my system signals time to exit. Everyone around here seems to know when that will be. I don't. Now I am going to bed before I freeze my **bleep** off in this gosh awful midwestern state with the cows. Charles

LOL/ROTF: poor tuffy just got smacked hard for even the slighest suggestion that the doomsday/armageddon scenario might be in doubt. and if you really want to get whacked, critisize some nutcake who is predicting a sigma4 collapse. YEEEEEEEEEEEEEE .... HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ......
