Actually, you can try to conjure up an issue, but the bottom line is there is little to nothing I hate. The reality is I'm trying to help guys such as you and whoever else might blindly follow a "gewroo"(sic).
Here's my advice to those learning investment: don't follow. If you want to be the "manager" of your own money and not place your money with a good investment advisor, great! But pick a system, investing through tea leaves, investing through astrological signs, IBD's cup and handle system, candlesticks, point and figure...whatever. Pick a system that works for you. And learn it.
Bobby Fisher was a genius, but he was also someone that played a lot of chess before he got to the national stage. He beat the best not because he could navigate on the chess board to "new" situations, but because there were very few situations that were "new" to him on the board. So he was never surprised in tournament play to anything. It's the same in investing, you play this game long enough you'll begin to recognize the "pattern on the board".
Do you have a game plan for a day like today on the market? I do. You should too. Did the bubble in PM stocks break today? How will you know? When Slider tells you? That could be too late. Following someone else's advice is not an investment plan.
It amazes me that you guys are afraid to question SOTB? Why? What are you afraid of, that he'll stop giving advice,? That might be the best thing that happens to YOUR account, because then you might be forced to manage it. But, when your gewroo feeds you a line of BS, call him on it. SOTB can give you some of the vaguest posts and string you on for days sometimes weeks, why does that seem like a good relationship to you?
No I never cared to be a gewroo (sic), just the lack of evidence in that regard should be enough proof. Not a site that I myself haven't posted to except for 2 post in the last 8 1/2 years. But there is some great advice there:

You'll find very, very few posts where I try to say an equity is going somewhere (up, down, sideways), probably less than a handful. |
