Richard, I read your entire post the first time and fully comprehended it. Frankly, I thought you were being pretty sarcastic, but maybe I was wrong about that. I was not wrong, however, with respect to my original citation of Aaron Task's error. I have printed out all the articles where Aaron Task mentioned Brinker. Indeed, I referenced them in my Special Alerts on the days they came out and they are on my desk as I type this. I am not sure what your goal is, but my goal is accuracy. When I saw that you were accusing me of posting innacurate information (sarcastically or not), I posted a quote which fully backed up exactly what I said. If you want to come over to my house and read the articles, drop by the Big Easy, and I will show them to you over a beer and some gumbo - my treat. I do want to point out some irony which may have been lost on you. The purpose of my original post, was to point out how people make erroneous assumptions about Brinker's abilities, because they might not know the whole truth, or perhaps they haven't fully searched out what happened. Mr. Task made that mistake once. The second component of my post was the importance of learning from mistakes - such as using stop losses to protect a trade - a lesson Brinker didn't learn even though he made that mistake in the first counter-trend rally. Hope that helps clear things up for you.
