let's give Xiong some credits, he said many things full of trading wisdom. About 1) darkness (depressed value) and brightness (market excitement driven by greed), 2) big trend (hey, if you sticked with gold, oil, US stock for most of 2005 and then shifted most money to China stock und at endof 2005, you are someone very very special in my eyes), 3) money management for big portfolio (this is something, honestly, maybe not too many of us here worry too much about, but who understands will apprecaited what he said) 4) trading technics. Among others, he shared a system on short term strength. The only thing I read at DQ that can be called a "system" for the last 2 years imho. Many people mentioned their "methods" but this one has trading theory as foundation, with stock selection selection criterion, entry and exit timing... I remain a big fan of, and feel very indebted to, his previous life at DQ. his latest changes are byond my understanding and I don't have any interested in finding out why. It's saddening to me. Because he became attacktive, negative, cornered, acting randomly, would use terms as "cheater" etc so easily so openly without much of supporting facts. Darks words are often signs of darkend heart. Something is bothering him. It's very sad and hoefully, Budda willing, he will regain his peace. all best
