It's not required. All charts are bearish (excpet the SDS, QID....) :lol: On the otherhand, to create bullish charts, ya gotta burn the midnight oil, look for obscure patterns, loose your sleep and torture the indicators into bullish submission. Been there, done that and laugh at it, whenever i remember them. Let the price show the way. Yes following the trend has a price. When the trend turns, you get caught. But only once, my dear. Betting against it, you get caught day in, day out. Now there ain't shame in getting stopped out. See ya folks......zzzzz. P.S - Either i am stopped by the time market opens or i will wake up to a giant sucking sound of a gap-down !. If SPX opens below 952, that would be jump-the-creek, which would target SPX 930 as early as tommorow. Any move above today's high and i am wrong and will press the eject button.

humble...its blatanly obvious that there is more hope and optimism regarding the public playing the double bottom test then there is fear of a november low break down look at the double bottom in march of 2008....the put call was at 1.31!!!! there was fear of the breakdown and they got burned now we are looking at a double bottom test from the november lows and instead of fear there is optimism as exihbited today by the equity put call of .67 dont make this harder than it is

go back and see what schaeffer was saying at nas 5000. he was rantin' bullish on CNBS based on his sent stuff. i wish i had tapes of some of these things! it will take weeks, maybe months, maybe years to balance out the long string of bear/bull ratio's we have seen at aaii, e.g. now here's another sent indicator: if the pub is so bullish, how can there be $9 trillion in mmf's paying nada? (help! i'm startin' to snort and paw and had no coffee yet, LOL.)

schaeffer is the big options expert. john gault was an ayn randian character, one of greenspan's favorites. the book, along with "atlas shrugged", was real popular at the 1974 and 1982 lows. ;) p.s. a hunk of that rydex money is yours truly; "guilty as charged" your honor. :)
