OT> . . . An Off-Topic Comment. . . .

I very much dislike flaming people. That is why I gave our offender so many chances to fall into line and stop being a cheerleader and a doomsdayer . . . or to at least answer some questions as to what his views truly were. . .as I offered.. . and was refused.

Now some of you can put up with it. . .or just not let it bother you, etc. But between my mailbox and my SI Private Message inbox, I have never received MORE complaints about any one poster since I started this thread. Granted that may simply be due to the larger population we have now.

But consider this. Each time I must drop what I am doing to write a post to get someone into line.. . or do some DD to prepare further action, I am distracted from my trading. It wastes my time. It takes away from our VIEWING of the market. And ultimately it hurts all of our bottom lines.

As I've said before, countless opportunities have passed my by, due to the time I take answering questions, posting and researching. And I gladly accept the responsibility with the job.

However, when it is unnecessary. . .or in the case of our latest offender, pre-meditated, spiteful and vengeful. . . then I move into protection mode. . . .and am not as understanding or accepting of the behavior. Eventually you get a post like you saw today.

As hard as each one of you work to provide the most pertinent up-to-the-second information possible to this thread, one would think that newcomers would be more respectful. I will not have disrespect here, anymore than I will tolerate "stock call cannibalism" or other such selfish acts. . . it is hard enough to win the war against the enemy. . .we don't need the added stress of watching our backs for friendly fire.
