E. Scott Shaw, Far be it for me to say that Bill hasn't made some great calls. I only occassionally check in here as I use Bill as a contrarian indicator of sorts. My previous post was more a statement of short term facts as I see them. I respect a handful of posters on SI from a trading standpoint, but I don't follow anyone. DD is rare for me, I'll just take the chart and recent news. Perhaps Bill is just busy, but he has left before at opportune times when things are going against him. I have seen Bill short stocks just to have them go 100% to 200%+ against him. Then after it falls to or below where it was originally, perhaps a year or more later, he goes on threads to lambaste the stocks "lovers" ( their own fault ), about how right he was. If he was right he would have gone long and shorted later. That is where the contrarian part comes in. Every trader is wrong sometime. That should not have a large effect on a traders account, but holding a position against the wind has drowned a few. Actually I kind of miss Bill.
