"Are these guys usually right or wrong?"

When you ask the question: "Am I usually right or wrong?", this will be the major step to success. Ask yourself another question: "Who the f... cares what These guys think?"

I care what they think. They are predictive, but only as a fade and only when they are excessive. Also, I like to have confirmation from another similar sentiment indicator, i.e. one that measures the same "sentiment sector". Free Analysis: This reading is generally neutral, or perhaps slightly Bullish, but otherwise not much help by itself. Mark

Sentiment data can be valuable, I understand that the Rydex traders tend to be wrong, lowrisk.com guys are likely more sophisticated. I did call the top back on the week-end of Feb.25th (Slamma Jamma post) and I did notice that a majority of voters from this board at that time were bullish.
