    LPI - here's one I saved in my chart list to see how it aged over time.  I kidded Steve that it didn't  look so hot on the monthly chart even though it provided a good short term trade.

    The blue vertical line was the initial trade on the 11th and shortly after it began dropping like a rock until it hit bottom a year and a half later after a 24X haircut.  

    That means if you had shorted it with $100,000 it would have been worth roughly 2 1/2 million at the bottom.

    That's why I like to look at weekly and monthly charts.  It eliminates the noise of the daily charts and allows you to see the major trend, patterns, ect.

    In this case four trending indicators were negative at the time on the monthly chart - moving averages, aroon, psar, and vortex.  

    In contrast, the daily chart just looked like noise.

    Which trade would you have liked to take.  Both is a good answer.   

    i'm just bored today Steve
