<<i've been waiting for you to prove yourself after attacking all my correct calls here and you looking like an idiot>>

You see Jeff..let me explain something to you. Maybe your ego can't handle it but in fact one might deem yourself the one "looking like an idiot" basically in the sense that you actually think you have found the "simple answer to trading this market as some sort of "guru market predictor". For reasonable traders it is you Mr. Cleo who is coming here looking foolish only in the sense that you actually believe your arrogant market predicting ability. One would really have to have an ego the size of texas to come on a message board, proclaim other posters idiots, predict the market so arrogantly and act as if he is doing everyone a favor. Its these egos from all the posters here on SI that make you and others who think they are infallable market forecasters, that are so ridiculous and unnecessary.

<<and then make about 20 more in a row>>

I love that one <<gg>>

You see theres a difference between yourself and lets say Zeev, who might come here and try and predict where the market may be goin, but on the otherhand will qualify his statements with admission that he may be wrong and its not for sure. But even for a technical analyst, such as you proclaim, one has to really use the charts to help guide himself in probablities to where the market is going. I am also a technical analyst and I would NEVER proclaim my analysis the end all and be all and then call all others questioning my calls, as some sort of fools. In fact you would have to be INSANE and an EGOMANIAC to do so. The fact is you, Jeff, nor I or anyone know where the market is going. We can only use charts to "guide" our trading. Its not the end all and be all of trading. But to come here and be so arrogant is really laughable and amateurish in thinking that you have found some sort of "black box". Its a disservice to other unknowing and unexperienced traders.

Again, I believe in reading charts as well, but please stop this arrogant bullshit posting about how you "know" where the market is going. Its really getting to be funny.

Good Luck,

TraderXx

make your call...

Jeff, with all due respect, and I mean that in a very genuine manner because I generally enjoy your postings, I just browsed through the last 10 days or so of your posts and couldn't find a single call of yours.

There were lots of "piercing" and "double-top" comments but I couldn't find a single place where, in realtime(ish) you said "I bought (or sold) XXX @ YYY" the way Zeev, Steve, Larry, atj, Mish etc do.

There were quite a few posts, so if I missed something I apologize in advance and request a link. I enjoy your running commentary and would be interested in seeing how you actually play this market.
