My point...if one has an view about whether the market is going up or down, I hope it's based on something other than an opinion.....or they are not trading actual money.
My intention wasn't to insult people but sometimes this place sounds like CNBC Junior. "Bull..Bears"..."It's going up , it's going down". Opinions don't pay the piper, without a solid trade plan with defined signals and rules, it's all gas.
It's the nature of a bear market to stage strong rallies to entice buyers back in. Not saying any tops or bottoms are in or this is a bear market but this is how one behaves.
