Ulli,
How long did it take you to be disciplined to follow your trend change in the contexts of all your emotion that a market may be just ""too high"" when it turns positive to reinvest.
Is that still a very powerful force. You even seem to hedge your rules a bit waiting for the price to go 'X' amount your trend line.
Is that a big advantage of a fee based service to invest others funds. There is not much in this economy or earnings that justify any rise in the mkt even 6 months out. When the mkt rises because unemployment figs were only 500,000rather then 525,000 or whatever is testament to a certain amount of decoupling at least my perspective. So mechanical or fee based service may eliminate shoudl intrepretation.
Anon,
I will respond via a blog post within a few days since you brought up some good points.
