Don't confuse call and pray with knowing the game. LOL, is that anything like Buy and hold? Or don't confuse brains for a bull mrkt? Reminds me of of Bull Market II. I never saw that movie. I've been watching Nightmare on Wall Street the last couple years. But I think I hear the end music beginning to play and they're gonna start rolling the credits pretty soon. If they haven't started already. Might have one of those horror flick endings where the monster makes one last freak appearance to make everyone jump once more- just so we know monsters never really die. But this has been a long two year movie, and I'm ready for some fresh air and a smoke.

Well I suspect after a good decline here we will be bully again for the remainder of the year. It seems to be the pattern on election years. The shell game will have to end eventually though I'm certain. And yes on the confusing brains thing. It was my problem as well. Made huge money on the initial down and then gave it all back not believing that we could go up again or should. I finally realized that my poker strategy and stock strategy should be the same. Play very few hands when the odds are steep in your favor. Run from the vast majority of hands. Forget about flush and straight draws and praying at the river. But above all else muck things quickly when they are not behaving. Everyone knows you need to take small loss's and not turn them into big loss's but it was much easier said then done. The ole it will turn my way tomorrow routine. No more of that nonsense for this idiot.
