"This is what floor traders on the NYSE learn and almost always, the hard way. If you expect to last, you can't trade the short side. Of course, you can't expect to trade the long side either, but you will last a little longer there before you discover gambler's ruin."

wow.. at first I was going to blast back about your silly thinking that short sellers will all go bust eventually.. then I realized you just think the market in general will lead everyone involved into the 'bust' zone.. heh- no offense, but what the hell are you doing here then??

.. I do like the posts you made on this thread however- Lotsa people got whacked over the last 12 or so months and they are running around looking for heads to bust. Kinda funny to watch actually : )

however- to think everyone will eventually go bust is silly.. and to think that shortsellers in particular dont stand a chance is insane.. err unless of course your point is 100% short seller, or 100% long.. I actually believe that you need play the market both ways, and anyone who dosnt do it THAT way will be whiped out..and most people pick one or the other unfortunately..
