Message 15127778 We can do anything Victor, but I asked for someone to step forward, and instead you pull this bs. Did you read this part from me?: "Wasn't the idea. My picks were at the bottom, if you want a contest vs. me, here it is: go ahead and pick against my conservative ten: t,wcom,lu,usg,hd,cost,jwn,bac,c,axp. The contest started 12/1. I'll bet you $2,500 bucks. SARMAD can hold the money

I say we take a different kind of poll. Let's take a poll on how much money we think Victor has lost in the last few days. No one can be this mean-spirited when they are making money and have all the answers! You obviously got burned being short or hold a bunch of "safety" stocks that have had big profit taking in the last couple of days. Why else would you be so darn grumpy? I give Mark F a lot of credit for being flexible enough to ebb and flow with the markets. Discipline wins out over conviction. I can't tell (and don't care) if he has lost any money on trades in the last day or so. I know he was racking up some big wins on the short side shorting high fliers there for a while. Heck, I'm proud of everyone on this thread! If you are still here posting and trading, and you survived one of the worst bear markets in history, you obviously know a thing or two. Many traders have simply lost it all or lost their nerve and will never be back. Crazy bubble markets like this wipe a lot of people out for good. Also, I don't see the point in trying to taunt Mr Harmond all day. Of course it's not really any of my business because I have been gone for 9 months so perhaps he did something to bring it on himself. He also doesn't need my help defending himself, I'm sure he is quite capable. Anyway I am quite confident that William is probably one of the richest people on this thread even after many of his positions took a hit. I would be richer than William but he is so darn old he has had more time to accumulate wealth <g>. Not only that, I think Mr Harmond, and some others such as Mr Rudolph, and Ms/Mrs Crawley (I can't name everyone) will always be richer than you even if their stocks go to zero. They have richness in character which money can't buy.
