Joe, you forget that I am not trading presently, while developing websites. Can't do both same time. So it is either I post about other things or I don't post at all. . . until I am finished with my work. I've posted this several times. And I have said there are other threads to follow that do discuss daytrades, etc. You are welcome to find a thread better suited to what you seek.
Also, we are more than happy to listen to your views on the markets.
1. What do you think investors should do in the current climate?
2. What are you successfully doing to protect and grow assets?
3. When will the bottom be hit on techs or are all techs worthless?
4. Do you think Greenspan will cut rates intermeeting?
5. Do you think those holding techs presently should hold or sell?
6. If you feel there are bargains out there, which stocks would you buy today?
7. How long would you hold them?
8. Is buy and hold dead? Or was it just sleeping?
I could go on and on with the sort of questions that everyone seems to be asking over and over. What are your thoughts?
I would keep up on every news item, tick, market report and analysis along with the work I do from dawn to long past dark. . . . But I can only do two things at once. The minute I split my mind into three parts, one of them suffers.
Joe, the thing is, I really need for the 2 years of work I have put into designing and building these websites to come to an end. I have put off EVERYTHING until it is complete and we go live. We have long since passed the point-of-no-return. . . we must absolutely see positive results soon from this work.
At this point, it is MORE important to me than the entire market, because it affects my family, which has been deprived of my time, while finishing this work. This is the week I usually start my summer vacation. This time last year I took my family to Florida for most of March. But we will not leave this year or begin involvement in anything further until I complete my work and establish these sites.
I hope you understand that. And I am sorry that I simply don't have enough time to do both. I've tried. It doesn't work. When we go live, I will welcome the break away from programming, etc. . . .and hopefully get back to talking trading on a daily. . . .by comparison, trading is far easier than what I've been doing.
Also, there have been very few areas where trading is lucrative of late. Each time I tried to lead this board in short-sell trading, I got bombarded with nasty email and PMs. Do you guys remember how I tried to lead everyone in short-selling back in early September? Just before the Labor Day weekend? And only a few came along for the ride. I tried it again several times in October and a few times in November. . . .and I felt as though I was talking to myself. . . and finally gave up trying. . . then by January, everyone got caught up in trying to figure out where things were headed. Throw in a few instigators. . . and discussion gets sidetracked.
Joe, this is precisely why our new home has numerous conferences on various subjects. . . .and each conference has numerous sub-topics. . . so we may go right to the info we seek, without having to read volumes of info about things we are not interested in. . . THIS is why I've been working so hard developing it. . . .I agree with you.
I am sorry if I did not make it more clear that I really needed to focus totally on my other work. The thought about capitulation came to me about 3am. . . so I thought it might help others to get a taste of the way individual investors are seen by the Wall Street Elite. This is fact, not conjecture. Sorry if I got carried away, but the website I am working hardest on is called ProfitOften.com and it focuses on these types of things, so that we can keep Insighters.com JUST a community. . . without active roles.
Thanks, Joe, for your concern. I know that you always have the best interest of the thread in mind.
