Hello

I have been long sp since 1/4/1998
(and roll over every quarter,,
I only enter long when the market is EXTREMELY overbought  or extremely
oversold
example  entered TODAY  on nd 4 big ones and already  sold 2 at the close
and  sold 4 put at a loss and net 71% of the move
now still long 2 but enter a real stop (even in the night session ) for 13
points  under the close,,
(in bad years  I make 750 points  net in good years 1500 points for 4 big
NASDAQ or 4 big sp500
nice evening
Ben
