Paul, of course it was, in part
look, sometimes it takes a 2x10 off the back of the head to get me to finally admit that I was being both stupid and stubbon on some trade I made (or many)
for me a least, comments from others at times, make me re think and rethink what I am doing and guess what? odds are they are right and I am wrong there will be times that I will rebutt with the facts as I see them but over the years wake up calls have helped me more than hurt
I assume that you and others all trade these stocks for real (as I do)so the losses on this thread are not just a paper exercise in addition if one is doing that on margin then the problem is exacerbated
you have been around a long time, know the markets, and have a strong background I for one would hate to lose you from here but if any of us continue to lose serious $$'s then none of us will be here for the long run
the nice part about cyberspace is that if we don't like someone or what they say there is that great ignore feature
anyway, from time to time I will get an your ass over one trade or another as I will do with others, with the intent that once in a while what I post will be of help; and, I sure hope you and others do the same back at me god knows I can use a smack more often than not
as to CPN the chart is looking real interesting for a buy here, but I don't know the fundamental risks on it in real time AOL, for a 1% 6 month to 2 year hold I think it is just fine
PS will the wind and continuous rain here ever stop so we can get out to sea again? ever? |
