				IMHO a depressed trader would:
(1) hang on to losers in a bear market until his psyche screams "sell". this would mark a bottom. He would continue to short as the market recovers.
(2) stay on the sidelines during bull markets until his psyche screams "buy". this would mark a top. He would continue to buy after the top.
