Help me out with this one, Walt In post # 6207, you mentioned that your software picked SCIO as a long, and GRST as a long and short (whatever that means), and to be wary of OLOG. Now, SCIO lost 75 cent, GRST did nothing but drop 50 cents, and OLOG would have been worth almost $2/share if you were long on it. Now, I am as bullish on people posting picks, and developing software, and doing it for the markets as anyone I know. I am not too keen on anyone dumping on other's methods, fundamental, technical or even Copia's dog's woofs. A lot of people go to an honest effort to sift some potential buys from the thousands of equities out there and share it here. That is worth some courtesy and respect. I will defend the first post as much as someone's thousandth. But not at others expense. I consider the folks on this thread my friends, and I'd like you to grant them the dignity and professionalism they deserve. Please post your pick list. The market will test it. And whatever happens, you won't have to apologize or pat yourself on the back. We'll cheer your efforts whether it works or not. Of course, if it works, some might actually be inclined to buy it... I would have sent this as a personal message, but your profile did not allow that option. lastshadow

Walt.. in the small amount of time I've known you, you've come across as an effective trader, a fine addition to #rttrader and we've even begun to collaborate on stocks. Yes, you have thanked me for the pick on Friday.. but you can't be given points on the manner you've posted. Words such as 'so called picks' and ...most of these picks are so-so can only be interpreted in one way. These "so-so" picks have accrued over 1 point on most trades, put money into our accounts, and gotten us piles of e-mail thanking us for our results. We don't 'put a hell of a show on' we post picks. I wish I had a dollar for every privately designed program in its "final stage of beta testing" that failed to live up to its lofty goal. Our "run-of-the-mill software" has not been put together by some 'whiz kid' out of his garage but by companies like Omega Research, Equis, AIQ and Telescan. I personally would not trade Telescan for any home-grown miracle system. I've made enough of a living using Telescan to chuck my graphic artist job and become a full-time trader...In fact our 'so-so' picks have aroused the interest of discount brokers, professional traders, companies such as First Call, Telescan, etc..
