Re: Have you ever tried to "catch a falling knife"?

Wow, my averaging down comment has prompted a barrage of advice!!!

While I have used averaging down on some occassions, it is not common place in my most popular trading strategies. I am more a trend man, unless I see some extremely good "value" in a stock, and feel the fall has been over done.

These type of positions tend to be more longer term, although on the odd occassion they can bounce in the short term.
