So Rea paid you $2500 a month to be a analyst and post under someone elses old alais you assumed and you agreed not to tell anyone else that it was really you and not the origional SKIBUM and you agreed to it?

Sounds like a plan.

You gave Gretchen the email. Gretchen even quotes from it. Then you started giving recs I assume? Recs where people on the site thought they where reading Recs from someone else who was the origional SKIBUM but in reality it was you.

================================================

Last March, in hiring Mr. Asser, Mr. Rea asked him to adopt the nickname of a former trader, Skibum. In an e-mail message to Mr. Asser confirming his employment contract, Mr. Rea said: "Under no circumstances will you allow anyone at Trading Places know the `real identity' of the nickname `skibum.' This is to protect the integrity and high regard many traders have for this nickname."

Mr. Rea said that he used the old nickname for Mr. Asser because he could not change his software.

Mr. Asser said he agreed to the ruse to get the job, which paid $2,500 a month. But he said he quickly clashed with Mr. Rea on stock and market calls and left the chat room on June 27. He has since become a vocal critic of Mr. Rea, telling his story to regulators and posting criticisms of Trading-places practices on other investing Web sites, like Silicon Investor.

olivier, the nasdaq composite index was down 214 points interday then rebounded on Sept 22. Futures where already down 92 points before you made your call the day before market opened.. Your crash of 300 to 500 points never happened.

"STOCK OPERATORS PROJECTS A 300-500-POINT CRASH IN THE
NASDAQ TOMORROW."

Microsoft anounced a earnings disapointment after the close. It was after this you sent that email. Your email was sent at 5:45 est after the Microsoft announcement.

OLIVIER, WHAT WAS THE OLD URL TO BE ABLE TO ENTER THE TRADINGPLACES CHAT SITE? HAVE YOU TRIED THE WAYBACK MACHINE TO SEE IF YOU COULD FIND THEM?

FOR EXAMPLE, REV SHARK OF THE STREET.COM HAS A WEB SITE. THE OLD LOGS ARE OBTAINABLE WITH A FEW FORENSIC STROKES OF A MOUSE AND KEYBOARD.

ALL OBTAINABLE LEGALLY BTW

btw Oli, when you where a proprietary analyst name Skibum, did you disclose to site members that Rea was paying you $2500 a month to make Recs?
