short term trades are what they are-- short term. Please go to the thread "making money with emini" for a lot of good info on the short term trading and forecasts. Of course, none of the strategies are fool proof, but they have some pretty good strategies and tools there.

I am hoping (just like everyone else, of course) that we are about to turn the corner. will it happen tomorrow? highly unlikely. Will it happen by the end of the 3rd quarter? possibly. Will it be back on track in 2009? most likely.

so there you go, another case for smart long term investing again. You can also go to Omaha and discuss this with Warren Buffett over cheeseburgers and cherry coke--he seems to be slowly unloading his cash back into the market.
