Steve,

The problem is that your posts have become increasingly self promotive. I do appreciate them and agree that things can be said in this medium that would never be uttered otherwise, that is why it is so great.

I will attend your meeting if possible but the self promotion issue Darren raises that you defensively object to is real. This is a thread for cybertrader not Yamner.com. It is a fine line, when it is crossed in my experience it is obvious to all.

DrRisk have a nice day

Darren, nice post. Not only taking pot-shots at me, but attacking the credibility of a guy (smith) you know nothing about..classy. Softball review...the numbers speak from themselves.

Take it easy there, Miss Manners. It was a joke. If you don't find any humor in it, then I'm sorry.

Regarding Gary Smith, reading someone's articles is like reading an open book. Especially the way he writes. While I have serious questions about why a writer at a place like TheStreet.Com would suddenly decide to compare Schwab to Yamner is beyond me. But I don't see Charles Schwab out on SI holding informal chat sessions and railing on users who disagree with his opinion. So, what do you expect me to think?

Finally, make no doubt about it. I would not think twice about saying the same things to your face. To me, your ambulance chasing is insulting (and you aren't the only one that does it, but that doesn't make it right). And the argument that you are just offering friendly advice under the guise of actually being a head trader also doesn't fly. Kind of like an attorney hanging around the hospital...

But that's just my opinion. Nobody said you had to listen. It's not like I'm posting it in your Thread...
