Sad to say, but even Scrumpies bleed & feel pain, too. OJ has been one of the best sources of bottom and break calls... more so than anyone else I consistently read, which is why I never need to venture far from Market Gems. Kudos, OJ. My trading and market "instinct", if you will, have improved tremendously with this thread, but they are by no means perfect.
Every member here, by and large, contributes positively and thoughtfully. This thread is comprised of a grounded, smart, introspective, personality-rich group of people (and chimps). We've won some, we've lost some, and many of us are still here. If we were all truly rich, this thread would dissolve and we'd all be in St. Martin. We all love the game. The gemmers I've come to know love to learn, love to play, love to trade, and step back up to the proverbial plate despite getting pegged by the ball (albeit a few inches back from the plate)...each time a bit wiser, or a bit tougher, and hopefully a bit wealthier.
I'm sure most, if not all of you, read, research, and scour for information to be better traders. Sharing the trading experience, I've learned, is vital to improving, and I feel this thread offers sharp, distilled insight into the more important elements of position, swing, and techno-fundamental trading. It also offers an oasis of sanity. |
