Let me start by saying: Welcome to The Ego Forum! LOL!

Dude, your post is nothing more than a personal attack, which is frowned on here. But I understand where you are coming from. I hit you pretty hard on your thread, so you wandered over here to bash a bit.

But alas, the point is that some of us are not permabulls and we use stops to protect from the kind of waterfall cascades you posted.

Sure those are my posts and entries, but my positions were stopped out. So once again it looks like you have no problem bending the truth to fit your purposes.

You posted this as evidence:
"Looks like the PM bargain window is still open.
Don't miss the sale and regret it at the EOY!
Fully loaded in PMs. - hubris33"

But you ignored this post from 12/8/2006 3:16:44 PM:
With lunchtime stops activated now at 64% cash. One of those stops was SLW at 11.17. [The trade didn't work the way I thought it should so I got out of the way for a small haircut.]
Message 23084732

So
1. Yes I use stops.
2. No, I'm not perfect, all my trade ideas don't work every time. [I only need 50% success rate with proper money management!]
3. Once again you have ignored part of the reality in order to spin you tale.

So Slidey, if you want a rational conversation, you can use a non-inflammatory style and you are willing to stick to the facts you are welcome here!

Merry Christmas!

The question that should be asked is what is going on with the USD:YEN vs the POG. Fairly nice correlation going there for awhile but it looks to have decoupled today. Now I see POG moving with the USD:Yen - at least this afternoon.

Usually strong moves up in USD has mean drops in POG. But POG held steady around 960 and well above the 955 support range while USD has recovered 3/4 of its drop and is back to key resistance levels.

Hmm, fundamental changes require more investigation? New paradigm?

Sir, I see you leading a self style revolution over there on your bit if SI cyberspace, but I have just one question.

Why doesn't someone organize a mass boycott of these "bankster gangsters?"

I have to wonder of all the people who are outraged at the AIG bonuses, the TARP funds, the forced take-downs and sale-on-the-cheaps of the Wall Street brokerages and all of the other shenanigans... well why is anyone still doing business with these guys? How many of the complainers still have insurance policies with AIG? How many still a brokerage account with Merril Lynch? How many a checking account with Chase? Aren't there enough well run local banks that can serve most needs? I mean really, most (75%) of the people could bank elsewhere with little problem and if people pulled their deposits out of these companies, they'd end up where they belong, under creditor protection in the bankruptcy court.

I sure hope all of these outraged people have switched their bank accounts, moved their CDs, switched brokerages and bought different insurance? Is there any reason to still be doing business with the Big 5 (or is it 10?) "bankster gansters?" Oh sure I'm sure there is some rationalization to be had here: it's too expensive, I don't want the hassle, But I got a free toaster when I opened the account! Geez.

Me, shoot I quit using those "bankster" idiots years ago when they had no method for creating a credit to the principle balance as I regularly over paid my loan. [Now, if I had missed a payment they had many "systems" for dealing with THAT.] NO, now I vote with my dollars only at well run local banks and with credit unions. Haven't missed the banksters and that goes for both personal and business accounts.

We need a good "old-fashioned" run on the banksters to kick them into reality. After all the Bankster lobby rewrote the Bankrupcty Code in 2005 - it is about time they get to take a dose of their own medicine. Seems like it might be poetic justice as well, no?

OK back to the regular programming....
