Well now, let's see how the self proclaimed hero did on ntap; a stock I follow. First, today's claim from the hero: <<Blew out NTAP on the opg for a nice ST scalp.>> ********* Next, the initial gloat from our hero when he "saw one coming" and picked it up in the "mid 23s for a trade." <<To:Greywolf who wrote (90560) From: isopatch Wednesday, May 2, 2001 2:32 PM View Replies (1) \| Respond to of 90874 How's this for tape reading?(g) siliconinvestor.com from my post #90560 yesterday "Picked up some NTAP in the mid 23s for a trade" Heck I hardly ever do any tech. But once in awhile I see one coming.(ggg) Iso >> ******* Next he announces his plan to extend this "rocket ride" by adding on any pullback. Note that it is around 27 here. <<To:Greywolf who wrote (90569) From: isopatch Wednesday, May 2, 2001 5:43 PM Respond to of 90874 Thx G.W. Been a while between rocket rides(g) If NTAP pulls back into the breakout gap I'll add. Otherwise will run with the mod to lg position I've got now.>> *********** Let's take a look at the chart and see how our "chart reader" did on this one. <<http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=NTAP&d=c&k=c4&t=5d>> So how do you get an ironclad reputation as a poster that exaggerates his trades, brags himself up to look good and is full of hot air? Maybe it's by claiming that you bought at mid 23's when the stock was at 27, announcing your plan to add on any pullbacks while the stock dropped over 15% in a few days, and then announcing that you sold the stock for GUESS WHAT, somewhere around 23-24 for a "nice ST scalp." If losing money on a stock is a "nice ST scalp" then I guess that depends on the definition of "is." Once again, posting short term trades in real time is interesting, posting claims of success on those trades when the numbers spell failure is even more interesting. What a liar and what a fool. How stupid does he think others are and how many lies must he tell if he can't even keep track of the more recent ones? This does make me laugh out loud. I guess you did see that "one coming." Ed

isopatch and all, (TESCO) TESOF having a good day here after reporting .60 per share last week. Broke past 52 wk highs, retraced to breakout and now bouncing back up on healthy volume. As I have said for quite awhile here, this is going to be a good late cycle play. Since there has been a good bit of skepticism about TESCO's casing drilling over the last few years, I don't believe this stock is done yet by a long shot as they continue to prove their new drilling technology.. I expect some consolidation in the $13 (US) range while gains are digested and large players accumulate (and play games!). The company was and remains a buyout target IMO, hope it doesn't happen for awhile. OBV on this stock is outstanding. Best Regards, Roebear
