(more…)While I normally get up at precisely 5:30 each morning (no alarm clock; thank you, circadian rhythm!) I had to wake up at 5 this morning for a phone call. Before heading downstairs, I glanced at the futures, and I was delighted to see that in spite of them being all in disgusting lifetime record high territory when I went to bed, they were almost all red.

Let’s start off with this premium post that I did on November 5th. Pure and simple, I called a top. I didn’t hem and haw like some Elliott Wave goon.
