<<There is a difference between trading and investing, you know it and I know it, right?>> I don't see the difference between trading and investing, I think in both instances we are trying to maximize our gains, and minimize our losses. Of course, so is gamblers.

>>>I was under the impression that you were only a trader, not an investor as well.<<< No, because I've always been a huge believer in "flexibility" and evolving to the unique situation of each stock. Almost every investing philosophy out there has strengths and weaknesses...I don't see why we can't take advantage of all of them. >>>You mentioned that Del Oro, Dataquest, and Infonetics information is available on the web.<<< I think Dell'Oro is www.delloro.com. The other two I usually get through news releases and/or articles. I'm going to look for the sites anyway though. Ok, I can see your point regarding the copyrights. I guess that I just always considered copy/pasting them for educational purposes as an exception, despite the legal jargon. I don't believe we're technically permitted by law to dub music tapes/cds or record tv shows on video, either? >>>I simply posted the stock activity for the day and for the year of CSCO, ASND and CYMI? How is that fictional? I'm confused.<<< Maybe it was the way you phrased it, but I thought you were posting trading positions that I supposedly had made in those stocks. So I took that as an attempt to follow me to threads that I follow and try to discredit me or otherwise damage my credibility with false information. If what you posted was supposed to be just the results of the day/year then that was my misinterpretation. I saw no other reason for you to follow me to the CYMI thread and post that since you've never posted there before. I'm sure you've been assuming the worst of my posts to you, and I likewise, so it's understandable to look for a personal attack somewhere. Style Pts.
