You've always stated that what you're doing is extremely risky and it took you years to perfect it.

The volatility of these stocks requires absolute unemotionality to play them, not minding getting stopped out, and getting right back in lower. You've always been encouraging but never indicated it was a strategy for others unless they were willing to preserve capital that way, and to get right back in.

I think you've been quite honest, shown integrity, too.

RRicky, you are a good man
you are also a good trader
you contain your emotions well
but your mere mention of such risky trades is itself an alluring temptation on a regular basis

I am an occasional asshole
at times I look to share the mantle of responsibility and place it on others
but I am careful and very slow in doing so
I can be a nasty SOB

but I am a much better analyst than trader
I still wish I had a cold partner to trade my account
one who didnt tell me what my positions were
such updates would unnerve me

I suck at this
I truly believe that a strong intellect, with deep economic background, with experience reviewing fundamentals... combined with unsure emotions, unsteady reins on self-control
THIS IS PROBABLY THE BEST PRESCRIPTION FOR HIGH RISK MISADVENTURE DISASTERS IN THE STOCK MARKET

thank you very much, bottoming now imo
I still like ATML, probably a bit boring for narcotic veinsplitters
