in a bear market some of the biggest rallies the market has to offer are in the random spikes that occur after a downtrend. they are hard to time. if people sell at a loss because a stock is tanking they obviously took a loss selling and potentially could miss the rally buying into it too late. these rallies pretty much make up for the drops. switching positions around to sqqq and friends can further the losses if and when things go the other direction which is unpredictable. keep doing whatever it is you've been doing basically works the best though.  I'm going bullish. I have said before and wasn't lying that I'll hold through a correction.  personally I think we will rally again before September and burn all the nay sayers.
