Yep, you could be right. But something tells me a certain group of people would disagree with you. Especially the ones that are now retired. But let me preface my post by saying that up to now in the thousands of posts I have made, I have never once came on SI and said I did this or that about a prediction. I have quit making them basically because of ignorance, resentment and envy in some cases, except for some on the Porch. Before you attack me and more specifically my Angels, I suggest you read the below info maybe twice. If you can then say what I did was immoral then so be it, at least I have always given credit where it was due. Sure there are going to be things one predicts that will not materialize but no-one, not anyone has ever been as specific nor laid it all out on the table has I did. Sure there are those that will call a top or a bottom, big deal, but like I say, I don't do it much anymore and just retired to the porch. Like I said, read it twice. The ones I told to get out of dell and didn't. The ones I told to buy AOL and didn't. A triple. The ones I told to sell AOL at 165 and didn't. The ones I told to buy BCST and didn't. Quadruple The ones I told to buy RNWK and didn't. Quadruple The ones I told to buy Jan 200's in Nov. in QCOM and they didn't, the many on this thread can tell you what they made and you probably bought them as many of my detractors did. Those I told to buy QCOM that it would go to 700 and they didn't. Those I told that they would have one chance to get out of QCOM or cover on the run before earnings and didn't. Personally couldn't care less but must defend my Angels. Like I have always said about the markets, when they are down, you can always tell who has lost their ass by the cutting they do. Something tells me the people that followed my immoral advice are standing relatively tall. The others, well like I said, you can just tell, can't you? selah, Voltaire

Ibexx, Voltaire has spoken for himself. What you feel about him is unimportant to me. What strikes me, yet again, is the degree of your hauteur and lack of empathy for others. perhaps you could spend some time these particular morality issues. And thank you for your disengenuous wish for luck on my calls. I employ a number of options strategies to hedge positions and short various stocks as well. I understand you don't trade options very often. If you were interested in learning, please feel free to read any number of options threads here on SI (including Jill's and mine). You might be surprised at how much you could learn.
