Dabum and Thread,
Although you have been erroneously identified as the founder of the HTP thread, I feel compelled, in the interest of fairness, to open up this discussion to those lurkers we haven't yet heard from.
In short, although it might seem that Slider and Isopatch have a credibility problem here on the thread, it seems a good idea to open up the thread to those, in particular, who find Slider and Isopatch credible, creditable and/or competent, to come forward and tell what you have found particularly prescient. It may be a little hard to generate immediately all those supporting cast members here on SI, since there are none of those multiple identities which come in so handy on the RIG thread, but we have plenty of time and if there is a coterie of loyal camp followers (and there might be) then this forum ought to be open to them as well.
My own favorite chart, although it seems unfair to do it on a NEM day like today, is an 80-week chart which coincides with the "gold call" from July 2000. A year and a half into the gold call and the return is pretty sad, given all the risk:

Yup, a passbook savings account at your local bank would beat both of those "favs".
