So instead of the theory here has been "it's OK to wiggle trade, just don't talk about it here" now wiggle traders have a place to do so at augie's board without distracting other members here or putting up with any implied condescension from some members. I've known as long as I've been on the board that you and JRI like to wiggle trade, and that's fine with me of course, but I also know that the posting of wiggle charts has drawn criticism from Allan. So instead of risking getting on Allan's bad side, you two have frequently resorted to "stealth wiggling" in which you discuss wiggle charts without posting the chart and without specifying your timeframe ("so are we in a C of a 2 right now" etc.), and thus cruise under AA's wiggle radar. But the problem with those attempted stealth wiggling discussions is that it irks the rest of us because we have no idea what you're talking about since those discussions provide no chart and no timeframe specifications, and thus can't allow follow along because we don't see the scenario proposed. In any event I wish everybody well, both here and at other boards, whether they wiggle trade or not. But for the record, if anyone is interested, and at the risk of sounding like I'm testifying at a McCarthy hearing, I am not nor have I ever been a wiggle trader, nor do I intend to do so in the future because it simply does not fit my trading strategies, personality or time constraints.
