but a character of bear markets is what happened this morning. Look back at Dec 13. who knows. I'm already tired of it and stressed with work injury and getting screwed over. may have to quit work and the bastages in HR are not even replying to me.

banks.........italy........long position opened three and a half months ago.......go and see where they are now. Don't ask me specific positions because I don't give them in a public forum.
when I called the spx bottom in October, I was not joking. I was already inside my European long positions and I knew America was turning up as well.....

Italy is 6 hours ahead of us. I would think they would have been closed by the time you said you were enjoying them

when I say enjoying, I mean not because of today, but I mean because of entering long three and a half months ago and staying long since then....
I don't care of the trend of one day or two......

no, not a day trader but when I make an entry why not use day trader methods. I entered 75% of my approximately on Dec 13 spike up so I'm still profitable even after the rally that has occured after the late Dec bottom. I expect this bear to last at least two more years but I don't know if I'll be able to be that patient on the short side plus I am sick and may have to quit work which would definitely affect my risk profile
