Re: Various

Believe it or not, it is realistic to set exit points.

Oh, I believe it! :-) One can also say that it is realistic not to set exit points. Do you aspire to be a James Cramer or a Warren Buffett? Either view of the world is valid, as long as you follow your discipline. This stock has been a traders dream over the past eight months.

>> My suspicion of anyone who does not provide either a real name or an e-mail address is even greater than the skepticsm I hold for internet posters generally<<

Providing a name to the SI profile is easy, how do you propose that we verify it? 'Real' people and 'real' companies with 'real' addresses have seperated people from 'real' money


First, a grammatical correction: I ought to have said "anyone who provides neither a real name or an e-mail address."

Yeah, Billy Joel sings about the masks we all wear. Also, recall that I said "even greater skepticism." Providing some identity ought not be taken automatically as a sign of good faith. A willingness to "show oneself" is just another factor to consider.

I have also found that a lot of thread gadflies come in with a pseudonym and censored e-mail address. It does raise questions about their motives. As does an inordinate number of posts in a thread where the poster indicates no financial interest. That doesn't mean I don't read what they have to say. I have ignored certain warnings to my later regret.

>>On the recent price action, tonyt has been RIGHT<<

Thanks.


You're welcome, but facts are facts. I became much more concerned about the price level as we approached the weekly trendline. I'll have to look more carefully to see what I think of your 10 buypoint.
