Not sure what the fascination is with those hoping for crashes every week. Just trade it like it was an ordinary day.

Predicting and sucessfully shorting a market crash especially in a publicly followed asset class like equities has BIG BRAGGING rights. Imagine telling your mates,grandchildren,mistress,grocer,cat,goldfish that you shorted the S&P an hour before it took a 250pt dump...


But whats worse is it shows lack of maturity and ego driven decision making...
