COMPX triple top folks at 3339...be careful is EXACTLY the type of post we do want on the thread, and I for one greatly appreciate it...

But a post like "buy stop 136 1/2 ARBA" sounds like an instruction - a type of post I don't think we should have as it sounds like a buy call in a trading room a "the house is recommending call"... And most newbies will see that, go for it thinking it's a sure thing and kaboom.

Any post like that should be worded as "I have a buy stop in for my PERSONAL trade at 136 1/2"...it should not sound like this is a real time trading room where all traders follow the leader. Then anyone who follows realizes they are following ONE traders call on a stock - not the call or recommendation of a thread or a room.

As far as posting on stocks that you are holding, well if they are tanking and you are trying to unload well then NOT. But if you are in a trade and see a further move - as I did on Blue today, i think it should be posted. As the trades you are in are the ones you are watching following closely and can give the best calls on. I'm usually always in BEAS - If I can't post about moves coming just because I'm in already - like my post early this am, I'll go nuts <ggg> Because when I see it happening, I can't keep quiet. So much so that most time I post a pick I'm entering before I pull the trigger myself.

As far as OJs lunch posts <g> I must say they REALLY bother me as my fridge is usually lacking and they make me crave really good nyc style deli food <gggggg>
