A rally is a beautiful thing, particularly when the correction preceding it was embraced enthusiastically. This is the time to harvest your profits, pipe dreams of incredible wealth and ego aside --- jump on those profits before they erode before your disbelieving eyes.

Unlike many things in life, stock market realities need to be dealt with quickly, decisively, and with zero hindsight.

Press Release: IGVSI Outperforms S & P 500 and DJIA By Significant Margins in 2011
Because the MCIM operating system demands buying on weakness (and because all securities produce income), positions are increased and new positions are added while others panic. A true MCIM user would be taking profits during rallies, in preparation for the next inevitable downturn --- it's part of the methodology.

Any feel for what the results must have been?
