my mistake... you didn't have to take the time to post that.. there are countless examples of stocks you've posted that you've bought and then gone on to do very well...

I'm just going on my personal experience from trying to follow you..
it does seem difficult at times.. i think maybe the fact that sometimes you say you've bought a stock and then dont mention it again for days or weeks sometimes is confusing... then when the stock runs one day you say you sold for a profit ... all the while everyone wondering if you still owned the stock or not..

do you rarely sell a stock at a loss? if you say you've bought then until we hear you've sold you've still got it right?

anyway, this is such a trivial thing.. it was just a casual comment.. we both know how hard these stocks are to trade and you can't babysit us all... don't worry about it..

you have my respect.. I just know that for myself to be successful I can't look to your posts or anyone else for a complete cycle. I have to know myself what to buy, when to buy and when to sell... rarely people have the time to post exactly what they've done timely enough for everyone else to enjoy the same chances... you'd have to be sitting by your PC all day long ready to post on every move you make and that's just not feasible..

we all appreciate your energy and your experiences here and benefit from them... it simply comes down to the fact that we all have to do this on our own.. and in the end, we're all individualistic in our rewards as well... when people start sharing profits, then we can all start being more demanding about how others contribute to the threads.. til then, anything anyone posts to help another is simply a gift
