Any edge in your favor makes sense to me and trading stocks within the strong sectors at any given time makes sense to me. The ETF's or HDLR's for those sectors are usually more predictable than the stocks themselves. It's just more ammo in your arsenal. But to each his own.
    Indeed. I don't recall exact figures, but I remember a study that found the majority of a stock's gain/loss was due to sector and overall market direction; i.e a rising tide lifts all boats.
    Buy Low
    Sell High

      And Webs, I hope my Pick of the Year entry hasn't stolen your thunder.... I've got a bunch of others I can choose from if you want it.

      PS. I was waiting for you to come back to chat and "celebrate" about the overnight +25% move from that TA entry point.
      No thunder stolen at all Dude. LOL

      I wanted to come back and chat, but I got over my cold and had to go back to work. As for ZICA... I toook my profit and will look for another entry later.

        You took off work because you had a cold???...I have not been out sick from work for well over 20 years...too bad they don't pay off unused sick time.

              I'm going in for surgery and might not be back until Feb. Can you place me on medical leave from the contest? Thanks
