Hello William; I am lurker that has had you bookmarked for almost a year. I am not a daytrader as I work during the day, but have learned alot from your work here on SI and I wanted to thank you on your thread. I mostly gear my posts towards the lurkers/newbies as there are alot of us out here that cannot necessarily contribute to your thread, but who appreciate the efforts that you make. You're skills and experience speak for themselves. And I have always enjoyed your interaction with Rande. I remember the first time I bought Paramount Financial back on 08/06 at 1 7/8, not a very good in, but then I work full time and was attempting to learn patience. Well, I waited, which is the key to the dogs. And when the classic 'pop' happened in September...well, I was working and couldn't get to it. Now, this story is not a sad one. I didn't get mad but simply started to research more of your picks. And the difference to my portfolio is breathtaking. onssw, dkey (1 13/16), bipl, telt(never did too well at), obci (1 1/8), fimg (1 3/4), atms (2 1/2), fimg (1 1/8), cici (4 5/8), mana ~6, acro, ectl, dynt, jmar, etc. Never the best in's or out's as I work. Profit often. Ride free shares. Smaller lots. 1k, 3k and 5k share lots work as well for a smaller budget. These types of trades have had a significant impact on my portfolio. I have time to research many of your companies, but never all. Finally, I have learned not to chase. There will always be another stock on another day. Be early and wait is a good strategy for employees that cannot babysit their portfolio. Just wanted to let you know that you, your regular contributors (I have read every post) and your efforts do not go unnoticed or unappreciated. This post has been too long in coming. Thank you William. Sincerely, John
