>>I am a trader - the word f*ck is used in every other sentence<<

I am a trader; I'm not compelled to sit at anyone's desk but my own. That's why I get to use big words like grownups do.

I don't salve my bitterness at my temporary losses by prodding others to lash out at me when they've taken losses. I don't gloat over my successes because I recognize that I truly would be unable to trade on my own, but am given insight by higher powers than me..... and by friends and associates. I will admit to the blessings I've received and share what I can with others.

AOL has chatrooms for flame wars and it is not hard to determine the character of those who consider it sport. I consider this to be a chat for serious traders, even though I recognize that every crowded room online and off will have its share of folks whose useful purpose is unclear.

The insinuation that folks here are morons for making a bad trade or two, especially when one usually can only guess at these things, is offensive and uncalled-for. I don't say these things because of losses; I have none recently to show. I say them in pursuit of a cessation of simple meanness, because we are here to learn, share, and gain what we can.

As for your emailers, I'm glad they are pleased with you. It seems odd that you prefer harrassing and annoying those who aren't emailing you, instead of spending time in the company of those who enjoy you so.

Personally, I cannot recall advising folks to jump into the market this week, other than to daytrade on issues showing movement upward. I remain confident in my purchases today and consider this a swing day with some issues at fresh bottoms that will decline no further, or will provide very near term gains.

Please do not mistake this for a 'bashing' as you call it. I keep my ammunition dry for real enemies. This is simply a request for on-topic posts and an attempt at usefulness. Saying "neener-neener" after the fact is not the mark of the courteous, kind or respectful person ... and those are the valuations in a person that my DD indicates are worth more than the bulge in a trader's purse.

Cruelty lacks all value.
