This is why....http://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=15047939 Also, I'm a trader, not a holder, at least not for the long-term ANYMORE. Although, I have held on to some issues that have cost me, no big deal. I will make it up. I don't like holding anything that I might can buy at a lower price the following day or 2. Greg, you seem to surface when the markets are plummeting, and certain issues have taken a beating with nothing else to say but, it's a pig, it can pay for itself, the list goes on and on. Fred addressed this same issue just the other day. Where were you when the markets rallied 500 points? Where were your calls? Recall CFLO? I bought in @ 38, then sold around 41-42 like an idiot! But, the entire night after my post that it was way overdone, you said it was a single digit stock, and that it wasn't overdone, and that it was my money. Remember that one, Greg? As a matter of fact, let me refresh your memory...... 1st off, let's take a look at my post on CFLO... Message 14867541 Now let's take a look at yours... Message 14867573 And another.... Message 14867762 Now, let's take a look at the chart on CFLO. BTW, it has NEVER hit my buying price since your call of single digits. In fact, the stock ran to 80! That's E-I-G-H-T-Y, NOT 8! stockcharts.com[L,A]DACLYYMY[PC10!C30!C50!C100][VC60][IUL14!LI14,3!LH14,3!LA12,26,9!LC20!LB14] You have one thing right, and that is, it WAS my money, I was an idiot not to set a lazy stop and let it run. No problem, another lesson for the trading file. You also don't seem to recall the shorts I have called too. Remember BRCM @ 180? BRCD @ 220? SDLI @ 250? Instead of throwing spears, why don't you throw some picks out. Ones that move, regardless of up or down, and have the GUTS to admit whether it was a good call or bad. KM
