They're all trend following, so sell when the price is going down, buy when the price is going up.
It's time and time again seen as the best way to win at the market, it's the only way really without a huge amount of people actually looking at the numbers and the statments from companies, reading share reports and press statments and actually making an educated decision on which companies are worth investing it.

Problem is now all big banks pension funds and hedge funds trend follow, but if there's no one actually doing the slow reasearch needed to obtain a decent idea of what the value of a company is then they've got nothing real to follow. They're following rumours and spikes that have disapeared every day for the last week. They are stupid fucks and any analyst in any bank should be slapping their terrified faces.

Paperclip trading sounds much more cut and thrust than I've previously given you credit for.
