I basically could not pass up the daily 10.20% gains on top of this winning trade, so I reduced the position by 60%... 40% is still riding and I will re enter that on any pops. I do see a short term bullish divergence setting up that may need some additional support from other buy indicators to get it going. However we are still in a negative MOMO area on my charts...although it is a bit extreme in the short term. I will be watching for the exit of this area and will let you know when I see it,...at that time it should put us into a more easily tradable bear market environment. Until then.... be careful with holding any long term bullish positions,.. as I see we could easily get to DOW 8800 or lower before the baby bear is over. :bowtie:

I'll say this leg or next.
Although I'm sure how you are defining legs.
I'm never really focused on the long term, which for me is 12-24 months, because of the many trading opps between now and then.
