Boyd,
Take a look at the daily price charts of 10-year notes AND gold (your interest?).
Very clear 1-2-3 indications that a major trend change has *likely* occured in each of these closely watched markets.
I love chart reading. They show the forces of supply and demand in action. That's why one well-read chart is *likely* to be more accurate than 100 economic forecasts.
One more thing, Boyd. And I'm sure you already know this.
To be really successful in the markets, you don't want to be a optimist or a pessimist.
Instead, you want to be a market realist.
My motto: This is what the market (chart) says, therefore this is what I do.
