Sorry but the market trajectory by definition is parabolic always. The market equation is a parabola so how and why do you say this? "Seldom does a market go straight up, in a word parabolic." Market movements small or big are always parabolic but since you deal with Mandelbrotian randomness always, very rough and confusing to the uninitiated. But the market equation is a parabola --- a quadratic with a single maximum. Ask any professor of chaos theory or fractal geometry.

BTW: It is such ignorance of what the market is and how it functions that keeps participants losing. The market is deterministic and not stochastic (no probabilities explain it consistently). There is absolutely no excuse to lose at the rates we see ---> only ignorance can underpin such.
In fact look at your chart --- the very one you have put out for this article contradicts you tons ----> it is a classic Parabolic curve on full and natural display clear and clear. So you see there is full understanding of the market and how it works by science (Complex Dynamical Systems), just that most participants choose ignorance for whatever reason which proves very clearly that market participants are completely irrational. They lose because they crave and court losses -----> except as I say, ignorant, nothing explains this self-destructive behaviour on the part of participants (I mean self preservation is the first rule everywhere except in the markets and gambling casinos).
