Your statement could be, right in a bear trend/bear move;
but not a bear market. GE, has been in a bear market since 2000, if one defines a bear market making lower monthly closes+lower lows. Some, long GE, could have made money long @$10 .GE could make a bottom APR,2018 but not likely-50 percent level from $60 area , $30 is bearish also.BUT a good uptrend/friend lasts for years, its hard to stop a train; , but leverage requires much, much better timing-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
