jhyalincha: If you are refering to me, actually I like bear markets, i love to short. In the first post you were refering to my P&L in another thread, if you take a good look at that I made more shorting than going long even i this bull market. If you can only make money in the bull markets and get in cash during bear market you'll do better than 90% of the population. I just don't recommend shorting to newbies.
