long term thoughts..., page-2

I recall the economic environment well back in the early 1980's. It was horrific. I was dealing with Darlington Futures and Global Futures (or something called like that) and they were extremely pessimistic to the point of calling a depression. Hmmm. Isn't that what's happening now? Perhaps a new bull market is just around the corner - I don't really now. I'm still in the camp that we haven't seen the worst of it yet. Anyway I've given up predicting the future a long time ago - it's really a pointless exercise for me. I much prefer being a swing, day or sometimes even a scalp trader. It's so much simpler and less stressful.
