Excellent idea! Posts along the lines of "XXX wanting to break out" and "ZZZ is moving now," although well meaning, really don't provide much information.

I don't find it necessary to know the specific trade and reason. It's a great thought, and I know you mean well, but I've participated on this board for over a year now, and never felt it necessary to keep tabs on who does what and why in that detail. I know a bunch of good folks on this board who give plenty of info on what they picked, traded, bought long, or sold short, and why. There is no need for me to know that a stock was bought at 50 1/8 @ 09:46 a.m. and then sold at 55 3/4 two hours later and specifically why. I don't think that that is the point and focus of this board, plus it's forcing us to bend to those spammers and bashers whishings. Screw that. I'm not bending for no one. ROFL !!!

Besides, knowing all that detail about a trade takes the fun out of trying to figure out why that stock idea or trade was posted. Throw those tickers with an interesting tid-bit or news headline at me, after you have done your DD of course, to get my hart pounding and let me figure out why you like it so much. Trust me, I will not forget who called that pick or that trade.

I'd like to be able to do that, but once in a position, I perfer to
spend my time watching it rather than explaining it. so for future ref. I trade 2 differnt ways either technical indicators have issued
a buy or sell, or I see activity on level 2 that I believe signals a move

exit strategy is simple. profit target, stop loss, trailing stop or boredom
