Buying on a breakout retracement would be less of a gamble. As it is, they could well be setting you up for a break out to the down side. Before a major upward break they have to take out all the longs, so a break to the down side is not beyond ...

I don't read books. But I am guessing this must be the origins of the random walk theory ? I don't know where I got that term from, but probably from google. The market does a lot random walking. However, it also does a lot of deliberate walking. ...
