Bill, My characterization of you being early was not meant as an attack. I felt I was simply answering a specific question from one of your clients, by providing examples All FROM MY PERSONAL experience. As such, I thought I was showing how an early positional statement person suffers, in order to spare your client such an experience, or at least to give them clues, so that they could identify "earliness" and take appropriate action.
Since being early was and tends to be one of MY hallmarks:
specific points I tried to address are:
1)
RE:I have posted frustrated posts for years as I've sweat through my multiple early buys before I learned to let the pros have the first wave up and I take the second leg up, aka EW3, which is the most powerful rally leg of a bull market.
2)
I still have dents on my desktop from pounding the table for bull moves that never come or come months and months after I have called for them to occur. There was one guy on Prodigy, his name was Alan Yu, who posted once that he always made money on going the opposite of my bull statements because he'd learned I was always early.
(You have forgotten one FACT: I am an analyst who attempts to make
bull and bear calls for her broker at her broker's public meetings in her broker's office on a regular basis for old and new clients. I'm on the hook a great deal for my calls and being early. And being early is the equivalent of being "wrong" to most of her clients, causing frustration and embarrassment to not only my trading account, but to her broker's wallet as my early calls affects HER broker's commission paychecks.)
RE: I have had bloodshot eyes from examining EWaves and isobars on the Weather Channel in particular for weather related Grain and Livestock Market's moves in positions held over interminably looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong weekends/etc.
RE: calling people suckers: I have NOT EVER called you a sucker, publically or privately.
I have been the one who rode Live Cattle long positions from 59c to 71c (through EW1,2 and 3) and then given back most all of those lovely EW 3 --2nd upleg profits-- (back in the old days,) trying to capture the 3rd upleg from 71c to 73c. That is how I learned of the sucker rally.
How in the world you'd think I'd accuse you of ever being a sucker
(my definition of any sheople/public who buys EW5 --3rd upleg--)
when in the same post I've clearly stated you are too early (i.e.,
trying to catch EW1 --1st upleg--) defies logic, my friend.)
I obviously have insulted you in a le cafe' postintended to answer
a QUESTIONER about the specific price of being early. That was not
my intent to embarrass you in anyway, but to share painful PERSONAL lessons learned from over 18 years in this game.
I apologize for your embarrassment.
I will be right along side of you, my friend, in the money making
department. I have chosen to acquire the physical metal and have
gone to considerable lengths to do so. I have NOT begun the acquisition of gold stocks, either junior E&D nor the majors yet,
chosing instead to just trade the majors at this point in time, frankly. I have no desire to be early in the junior E&D game, anymore
than I have a desire to have dead money in the futures markets.
For some reason, I hit a nerve that I was honestly not fishing for, honest.
However, I can see how and WHY you took my reply to your client personally. Again, for that I am sorry.
I hope you didn't puke too much. I'll help you clean up that very unpleasant taste in your mouth a/w/a aftermath in any manner I can.
Merry Christmas back to you, even though I was going to wait till a little closer to Christmas to express such warm personal greetings.
Whether I continue to "yap away" as you put it,
on your website from this point on,
is totally up to you,
since I am there both by your invitation as well as as a courtesy.
I would never EVER intentionally embarrass my host, in a public forum. I was raised better than that!
I sincerely hope you are now feeling better!
