"I don't fall in love with a poster". But you fall in love with a stock....

"I don't fall in love with a poster" Quite the opposite, it is quite pathetic to look at your posts and see just how many of them are directed against Zeev. Funny thing is, you are almost always wrong and don't EVER learn from it. If you follow Zeev's reasoning, you will see he is flexible and reacts to market conditions. If he makes a call that turns out to need some adjustment, he will say so and give his reasons, and usually have the acuity to turn it into a winning position anyway. This subject does not follow a particular stock, but is comprised of people who want to be realistic, analytical and profitable. That's why you'll find no sympathy here. Zeev is perhaps the most valuable contributor here which is why you are just making yourself look ridiculous. This has nothing to do with falling in love with a poster, it is about examing people's track records. Apart from Zeev's ability to make money on the markets, he is also appreciated for his willingness to take the time to share and coach others, and is noticeably most civil, even in the face of abuse. You are no match for Zeev, so don't even try. To show your duality, here is a quote from Zeev on Dec 21, 99: "Are you still riding VLNC? I think that within the next few weeks it will possibly get to the $25 to $27.5 area" I made some good money on VLNC calls. It was Zeev who alerted me to the opportunity. So your accusations of Zeev trying to manipulate VLNC downwards for his own benefit hold no water with me. Search this thread for VLNC and you will see Zeev calling it as a buy at times and as a sell at times. It's what's known as calling it how u see it, honesty. You are the one with the motive as a self proclaimed VLNC evangelist.

Mark, Zeev is basically a very successful mostly-TA based day trader. He seems to be balancing about 50 stocks a day in his radar (I don't know how he does it, I have a headache staying on top of 10, but he seems to do it well). I don't trust pronouncements of market bottoms or tradeable rallies blindly, and try to verify what he says using my meager tools too, but he has fairly good accuracy there. I know for some, a single stock is the world and they'd get upset if someone doesn't see things the same way, but recently, I realized that no matter what I felt about a particular stock, the stock doesn't know who I am and it doesn't care what my hopes or dreams are (quote from O'Neil). Despite what some people may think, posting in message boards alone is mainly entertainment, it has very little effect on the movement. The people who follow advise blindly probably won't be able to trade successfully for long anyway. JMHO.
