A@P - I'm all for you having your own web site - that's the obvious next step for you. However, don't fool yourself that you will be able to hide if you have 'loyal' subscribers or be able to go 'deep underground': Message 8836430 Message 8836471 The same guys who are orchestrating against your short calls will also be among the subscribers. Take that as a Given #1. Furthermore, there will be groups of investors who will pool together and sign up for a single subscription. One of the pool will be charged to follow your e-mail alerts/calls per day on a rotating basis - and once received - he/she will then e-mail others in the group - and from there onto their 'buddies'. Take that as a Given #2. You work very hard - you're very good at what you do - we all need to earn a living. However, even a $100US/month for access is almost $5k Canadian/month - ha ha. I do subscribe to several sites and they offer a great service so I'm not that tight. You just can't beat $6.95/month for TheStreet.com - and they throw in a couple of e-mail's each day. Most of the free sites that have their 'picks' are just front running junk sites. I hope you at least have some free articles as per Asensio's site and maybe throw in some of your favourite DD links. If you could offer a 'weanie rate' of something like $250US/year I could go for that - I'm still working on my market investment strategy - and I'm not making the big $$ yet - next year perhaps :)) I threw in all my mutual funds (which I was 100% vested in) just over a year ago when it was announced that the manager of the equity fund which I was most heavily invested with in Canada turned out to be a crook - Frank Mersch who ran the Altamira Equity Fund. He invested fund $$ in a speculative resource play that then shot up in price. However, he 'forgot' to disclose that he had purchased shares in the same company for his own private account prior to pumping the fund's $$ in - surprise surprise - the shares in that play increased substantially. The NAVPS of this fund also dropped nearly in half over the two years prior to the discovery of this scam. Needless to say I had to ask myself the question - "And I'm paying a management fee for this?". Following Cramer's call to the brain washed fund investors I said 'To hell with it' I can do better myself - especially as 80+% of funds don't even beat the S@P 500. The only fund class I would consider now are the index funds. I'm trying as hard as I can not to appear to be moaning about your subscription site. IMO the only way for you go 'deep underground' is to give up the idea of having subscribers and for you to not disclose on the threads what you are shorting. At least His Pinkness is back from his sabbatical - so all is not lost. Best of luck (to me) :)) David.
