(Posted October 26, 2003: "The emotionality portrayed in recent market moves gives one pause to think that a major sell-off may be coming around the first of the year!")
I have always been interested in predicting major market direction changes and how to benefit from them with option plays. The theme here is about predicting major changes...
- what indicators may serve us to anticipate a major market trend change, and;
- how can we tell the extent of the move coming and when it will occur?
This subject may be timely as many advisors are saying "... times are changed, crashes just can't happened any more."
What support can you give to ideas pro and con and what do you suggest an investor do to protect him or herself from the unexpected.
Thanks in advance for your interest and postings... and the best of trading to you,
