if your stuck on ONE side you lose

That's not true Jerry, and you know it. Your implication is that if you don't play the market both ways, you can't be/aren't making money. While many short sellers may not be as ultra-super-duper-whammo-free toy inside-profitable as the traders in your room, there are plenty who have profited from scalping and swinging exlusively short.

You've got a lot of less sophisticated lurkers who follow you, and I think you do both them and you a disservice with that kind of rhetoric. JMO.
