Susan, I am computing everything by hand and typing it in by hand and so I might make an honest mistake here and there in figuring everything out to the penny, but having not yet looked at the error you state which may be thought as an error possibly only because you missed a trade or two yourself; I'll re-check everything sometime in the next week. Since I'm posting the trades you list one by one; I'm certainly not trying to pull anything; if a mistake exists, I'll be happy to correct it. Why don't you just tell me where you think the error is and what the correct figure should be and make it easy on me? As for my trading style, you will have to wait and see if the trading down to hell approach is foolish or wise, but as for the rest of what you have said, you have to keep something in mind: I've only talked to Dan and Ron personally and I never opened up to them; though I was willing over time, it just never happened. I never and that is NEVER reveal anything, not even a hint, as to what my real circumstances are, who I am, or what I am up to. I've never revealed anything accurate about myself in anyway to anyone, with the exception of Brad Dryer and a very few select people who have been given minimal information about myself on an as need to know basis for a limited purpose with a limited amount of infomation. If you make any assumption about anything I am up to, you really don't know what you are talking about because nobody has been given the information from me to know anything. If I open up to people, I never open up with anything accurate about myself; I usually choice a persona that fits whomever I am talking to and what they expect I'm about. SI isn't a social club for me. I'm not here to make personal friends, with very rare exceptions; I'm here to trade exclusively tech stocks as a pure trader in techs. The paper portfolio tells you nothing much about how I am really trading, though it does tell you something about a subset of stocks I track. How I really trade them is personal and not ever shared publicly. Given all of that; the paper portfolio has a definite value. I think it shows very clearly what is up in the mid-cap techs stocks and shows graphically what the breadth figures are indicating. To me, playing off a watch list portfolio has been very helpful in making profits; although I only share one type of portfolio publicly and have others like it with different picks concentrated in different types of picks that I use myself. The method displayed publicly is primitive; I use my real time and effort to do real trades. I've never done anything differently since I came onto this site and the story stays consistently the same. It is only all of the guessing that changes. Since I love debate and can debate either side of a position effectively; nobody really knows anything about me on any subject. Given all of this; your comments to me really don't mean very much and can't be particularly appropriate. Anonymous

I guess I'm trading PAIR like a fool just like Dan Z. is trading VLSI like a fool; or maybe neither of us is a fool and we are just going to have to wait out a peculiar market for a short while? I don't have any problem with waiting it out. Both of these companies are good picks and it is just the market conditions that are very bearish for now. That won't stay this way forever; I'm sure of that. As for how I've traded PAIR; I'm invested in PAIR, not trading it, so the game isn't over for PAIR until I sell it. With everything else breaking down in the mid-caps; I've been surprised that it has taken so long for PAIR to fall apart. Averging down is foolish if you concentrate in one stock; but in tech mid-caps with a diversified portfolio of techs all down due to the market; I don't think that strategy will prove very foolish over time. If I recall; Dan Z. took months for his DIGI pick to gel; so this thread isn't just day trades! I figure that at this point; if you were to buy every stock I have in my current paper portfolio at the current prices they are trading at as of today's close; you would have a very nice investment portfolio of tech stocks with nice upside over the next 12 months.
