Oh boy, do we have a smart ass here! Thanks for letting us know, Mr. Obvious!!!

Did you read his post? BuyLo specifically referred (at least in my understanding) to the seemingly random swings in the market in the last 3-4 days. Has nothing to do with being on the right side of a trade over 18 months.
