I just reprinted from your own website. If Stock Operators staff are so highly qualified to make recommendations here, why don't they simply trade instead? We at Stock Operators are former traders with wide experience. Because of the illegal and otherwise questionable agreements other sites have made, we do not believe that, until now, there has existed a single site we felt we could trust to deal in good faith with its traders. So we established a site that is different. One with integrity. really, so you are judge of integrity. But isn't this just another competitive site, with a slant but not anything concrete. What did you offer today? PSFT in the morning or maybe IREG, or HAND at 9:40. How about STXN, did you research the earnings? Who are you kidding? FROM YOUR WEBSITE The problem with the stock markets in general and trading especially is greed. Many unscrupulous players have infested the markets and the Internet, concocting schemes to defraud traders and investors on a huge scale. Some of them are: 1. employee trading of site recommendations, which leads to biased analysis, front-running of and share-dumping on members. Some examples are: (PSFT came out with great earnings and I researched it the night before, do you research or just concoct schemes like these.. how about IREG did you know about that or HAND.. If we front ran that we sure did a good job. Again great earnings report.. and 300 shares we picked up really moved that stock.. <g>) a. buying blocks of a small cap in advance and then "pumping" it to members, boosting the price artificially, and then "dumping" (selling to) on the membership; (pumping... we called the INTC calls as a 'risky' but could have good reward.. so we pumped INTC, that was some pump and yes we 'dumped' them this morning at a profit).. another remark from out of your bag of unprovable solicitations for your own company. How can one pump ELNT if it moves up in the morning 2 or 3 points and we get in and the stocks moves up 8 more?? Are you just uninformed and than how do you make claims if you don't research the person you allege to "uncover" b. recommending low-volume stocks, shorting into membership buying, and then walking away from the recommendation, leading to a panic and great short profitability;<< Sorry yes we shorted EXAR simply because we thought it was overblown from so much good news and anticipatory upswing but I won't explain that to you, you don't even know techno-fundamental trading.. its not up your alley>> c. using positions of leadership and responsibility to hype stocks, regardless of market realities, due to personal trading interests; (my trading interests? I have about 10 calls or puts in a trade... Our room calls great companies like C, or ELNT, or NEWP... who are you to suggest we are hyping we are buying AFTER the good news or technical trigger>>> you are presumptious arrogant.. and just don't know in most cases what you are saying.. or if has any basis in fact other than self promotion for your own very expensive website. 2. fake, site-directed members who make outrageous claims in order to bolster a site's reputation, demoralizing the true traders; (we never make claims.. what claims.. we have a few hundred members who trade very well, maybe you are making claims in your own website... very big claims, ridiculous claims) 3. brokerage agreements: many, many sites are closely-linked to so-called on-line "instant execution" brokerage firms, who pay them a percentage of all the commissions their referred members pay. The result is a site makes many more calls than it otherwise would, because now its sole aim is churning trades for commission dollars, instead of merely serving its membership in good faith. I have 3 brokerage accounts.. I have trading the same ones for 5 years.. what kickback.. I don't even advocate one over the other which has been my policy for 4 years. How dare a start up little 31 year old presume to say anyone does it without so much as a cursory glance at their practices? You are not even a good sleuth. YOU are not what you seem. And finally you claim to be 31.. okay but then who is the man running that website for those outrageous prices.. I and others are not at all convinced that a little chat room.. like yours is so fantastic to command such a price????? For what? So little asser.. I don't know if you own the company but before you go asking questions in that arrogant manner on someones website... check yourself out.. or into.. somewhere. What is your connection with that expensive website?/ who is making those futures and options lectures??? and why is it anything different than any others..
