Rbowin, You've got the wrong thread and wrong person. I think you meant to post over at TMEX. If Joe can pick winners, he has earned the right to be in first. And when you have honed your DD to the point that you can pick them as well as Joe, perhaps people will start listening to you. Until then, take your envy elsewhere. Mayor

If you want someone else to make your decisions, you must be prepared to pay someone. GRASS,GAS,or ASS. nobody rides for free. Everyone who post HIS pick is trying to get the price up,Why not? Nature gave you a brain, don't look for someone else to do your work for you. As for me? Two plays w/TMs crowd broke me of sucking eggs. Now I find my own plays. Not hard to do, and forget the momentum plays, sucker bet. Every momo play always has comment about MMs they do this, they do that. Bulla,bulla. Fools do this or that. JMO

looking at the one day BIG chart on yahoo...GZON was at .019 since 9:45 am and NEVER dropped lower. Joe, you got in at .015 right? so it must have been about 2 1/2 hours later you announced? any particular reason? I can understand that you would want to have an order filled before announcing, but one would think that once you were putting in your order, you were finished with your DD & could tell others. Also, if you were pretty confident all weekend about your pick, if others knew they could have done their own DD to make the decision to buy on a limit order. We are all using different online brokers so it's not like people would form one big line wanting to buy...it goes in order by broker.Personally, this had no affect on me because I had no intention of buying a stock I knew nothing about before hand when it was already run up. So I didn't lose anything. But many people say you are straight up, and I am sure you do a tremendous amount of work & obviously have a following, but on threads that are NOT for penny stocks, most people post what they are INTERESTED in buying and why and the followers of the thread all do their DD, post it to help others make the right decision as to whether they want to buy and at what price. There is no urgency that way.I have not followed your thread for more than a few days, but the past few days has shown me that you aren't looking for help on DD, because if you were, then you would post it before buying & others could help with the DD. But if you ARE getting help with the DD already, BEFORE posting your pick, then it is clear others already KNOW your pick before posting it & they are in already or get the edge to buy early. I don't think I am being unreasonable in saying this. Are there others that agree?
