Tim, The deal with these clowns is they think Volty is leading himself and his followers down a path of bankruptcy....and they love it. What they dont realize is that each and every person is responsible for their own actions. if volty says buy abcd at $50 and you do, you did so on your own voalition...not cause volty said to....and if you do run out and buy or sell something because somebody tells you to, then you have noone to blame but yourself. After all, If I tell you to jump off the brroklyn bridge, and you listen to me, who is the real fool. Anyway, I'll be the first to admitt I seek plenty of opinions on this thread. I use those opinions as part of my DD and then I, and Only I, decide what to do....If volty says buy elon at $100 and I do, and it drops, I blame myself. I may give him a hard time about his bad call, but I blame myslef for the actual trade. On the flip side, if he says buy abcd at $20 and it goes to $50, I will thank him for his advice, but again, it is I who decides whether to buy or sell......these clowns think we are just a nunch of idiots, blindly following the Voltman.........if they knew half the truth, maybe volty could be on the golf course rather then paper trading to prove a point to folks who will still find fault no matter what. hope you had a good christmas and hope the margin man is leaving you alone.....sure hope we get a strong january so I can sell some calls and lose the last of margin once and for all....except for some short term or swing trades of course...but no margin to sit on for an extended period. One thing this market has taught me is no amount of margin is safe as quickly as prices can fall... have a great new year...hope we close strong thurs and fri.....would like to go into the long weekend and new year on a positive, not a negative. keith
