Dear Greg!
After lurking on SI for a long time I would like to thank you soooo much for your excellent posts. Indeed - without flattery - you are my favourite poster.
I like your psychological approach to the market. I've a similar strategy, >50% LTB&H, rest ST trading dependent on the market sentiment.
A man who shares his thoughts so generously with in part unexperienced investors deserves all his speculation gains.
(I've followed some of your trades. It seems to me that you've made a fortune!)
I hope that I can contribute occasionally to your great thread. If there is a demand I could serve the thread with information about Europe.

I wish you and your family all the best!

Best regards,

S.P.

P.S.: I've visited the "Tour" in Freiburg. It was a great spectacle that I'll never forget. The other stages I watched live on TV. It was so exciting that sometimes I missed the "holy" Wall Street opening.
Congrats to L. Armstrong! He's a great champion!
J. Ullrich isn't much weaker at all, but it seems that he's already satisfied.

"I don't like the time value."

If you don't like it, why don't sell it??

You are a very savvy investor, I can't believe that you don't do options.

Short selling a stock/index is only one point (short call, long put, same strike) in the infinite set of all option strategies. But because there are much more strategies I'm
a great follower of options (doing trading and hedging).
