>>AT, this weekend on #rttrader you mentioned the possiblity of shorting APM. I thought about it too, but it would have been so cruel to all the friends we have made on this thread. Of course, for the contest it would have been a good choice.<< Actually I said short APM after WDC's announcement came out. I kep telling people not to buy the stock. And its not even a short candidate at this point cause we dont know what the debenture holders will do. And I think to be a good trader you have to put emotions aside and be honest and open no matter how much it hurts, a lot of it goes for the real world as well... Althougth I did make a half hearted effort to short it anyway. I think if one of us had the balls to short it it would have opened our eyes a tad more than believeing what crissman kept saying. TA is not always correct, you have a 50/50 chance. FA is not always correct either. Its common sence and feed back which you can use to gain an advantage. For me personally the huge gains I had this year were not based on TA or FA but seeing what others were doing. Of course right now I have a huge loss that can take the next 10 years to write off..
