<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Hi Dan:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I try not to have opinions on the market, but since you asked. 
d8^)&nbsp; Right now the market seems to be a dangerous place to be long (refer 
to JimG and Adam's post)&nbsp; yet Guy Tann appears to be on the verge going 
long in this market.&nbsp; I'm very nervous about the short term prospects for a 
positive advance and wouldn't be the least bit surprised to be letting AOL go in 
the next day or two.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>That being said, MU closed at 71.00 on Friday 
and the Bull Fear level is at 72.88.&nbsp; Right now the stock is in what Walter 
Downs described as the Point of Balance Region between the Bull and Bear Fear 
(66.84) levels.&nbsp; If MU were to close above 72.88, with a sufficient 
Directional Movement number, I would consider that a buy.&nbsp; However, with 
the market in its current condition and the S&amp;P 500 and DJIA both below 
their 200 day MA's, I may just sit this one out and watch from the sidelines for 
awhile.&nbsp; It won't kill me if I miss a trade or two until things turn 
around.&nbsp; The B&amp;B Fear system is definitely a trend following system 
and, if we are going into a full fledged Bear Market, I'm not going to swim 
against the tide.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>It is interesting to watch what is going on in the market 
right now.&nbsp; As I've said previously, I'm a poor trader.&nbsp; I let my 401K 
handle my retirement money and the account I trade is relatively small.&nbsp; It 
is interesting to watch current events unfold and see the value of using short 
positions to hedge a portfolio against dramatic drops such as we've had this 
week.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Good Trading</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT><FONT size=2>I shorted MU.&nbsp; I was 
prepared to risk about 10%, so todays rise didn't stop me out.&nbsp; I think

<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Not a great week to be long.&nbsp; AOL did 
alright today and bounced back some but BBY crossed the Bear Fear level of 63 
3/16, and I'll have to let it go at the open tomorrow.&nbsp; Shame because it 
didn't drop out until right at the end.&nbsp; This one of those that my wife 
just doesn't understand.&nbsp; She would tell me to hold onto and wait for it to 
come back, and I can never quite satisfy her with the concept of cutting losses 
short and letting profits run.</FONT></DIV>

Just like to take this opportunity to publicly commend Steve on his
excellent site http://www.abbracadabra.com/cybercast and his unique
daily commentary delivered in dead-pan style.
I for one am learning heaps and making money while I'm at it.
On Thursday Steve annotated   "Beware of the dark cloud covering".
I closed out my Dec Cotton Friday morning, following the
Cybercast trade closely for a very handy $1250/contract in 6 days.

The FibCMO provided clear signals once again.
The horizontal red lines are from Fibonacci Tool - thanks Ken.

Currently long Dec Wheat at an average 254 and looking for a good
entry for Dec Corn.  Check it out if you trade this stuff...
