Kumqwatt, I have already dealt with him and settled the issue. . .

I flamed him here a week ago for posing a question which caused doubt in BDE, while holding a short position in it. I very much dislike confrontation, and find it counter-productive. . .but will participate, when I feel it is my "duty".

My "job" here, when possible, is to:

1. Post trades, DD and potential plays
2. Predict the future
3. Police for scams
4. Pull together like minds
5. Protect mutual interests
6. Teach trade methods, etc

Yes, the Home thread is different than many websites/threads, etc. For one thing, we focus on accurate plays. . . very few "misses" have ever crossed this thread, since its inception.

As for "shepherding". . . does anyone here rely on me to get them in and out of their trades? No. That is not the way the Home thread works. . .never has, never will. . . .we encourage thinking for oneself. Other threads and pay websites post this:
<WXYZ> <-------------- SHORT AWAY
<ZZZZ> <-------------- BUY THIS NOW
<WXYZ> <-------------- COVER HERE
<ZZZZ> <-------------- SELL ALL

Might as well reach through the monitor and just push the execution buttons. By contrast, we teach trading, discuss our plays, discuss our entry and exits, post our trades, help one another answer DD concerns, argue pros and cons and always stress making up our OWN minds.

Anyway, regarding Dale. . . I went back and posted this public apology to him: Message 10534577
He says he will not be posting on the home thread anymore. Sorry to hear you were suspended. I don't have an opinion about it.

But we are "at peace" with Dale here and I would like to keep it that way. Suggest you forget it and get back to making money.
