I appreciate the compliment. But...to keep things in check, I would like to make sure you understand that I am just getting ahead from a very bad hit I took in March. I overmargined myself, and I took a big loss. Be careful about holding me in such high regards, because I made a stupid greedy mistake, and I am not 100% certain it couldn't happen to me again. I am just an ordinary Joe trying to make it in a big market...nothing more. The kicker...Anthony advised me to lighten up after I was already up over 1000% on the stock. My sight was blinded by greed and emotion. Not the traits of a great trader. A few mistakes like that and heck, who knows though...I certainly learned something. I came out of it relatively unscathed...except that 6 months of hard work and incredible gains was flushed down the drain. Now I am a year older and thinking a little less aggressively. I am learning the hard way like most I guess. I have let at least 20 million dollars slip thru my fingers in the past 2-1/2 years I have been actively trading this market. Soooo..do not put me on any pedestals just yet. Thank you for your words though.
