post #1. to the thread regarding brokers: i took the day off to pay a vist to MB Trading, when i went there it was with a very small grain of salt. i have been trying for a couple weeks now to meet with ross (the boss) and get a tour of their set-up...he was in no hurry to kiss my butt and get me as a client which i respect him for and he knew i could bring him alot of business. all i can say if i walked away wishing i was a client from day one, if you are serious about trading this is the ONLY way to go..i thought about brown & co. for their 5$ trades but it's like driving a pinto compared to a Ferrari. you have everything you will need all on one screen...

Message #2...regarding this thread: i'm a little pissed that a few of you have the nerve to send me messages complaining that i didn't post my position on a trade and they missed the boat....FIRST OFF i'm not nor will i ever be anyones stock picker or hand holder. i try to my very best to put out solid picks(xyln,knt,osi,mer, guc,newz ect.ect.).... all of which i put out the second after buying the stock myself . you don't see me trying to sell you to a web site so you can pay me a fee to be a member. there are over 1,400 people that have this thread bookmarked and i'm quite sure i could convince some of you to join for a monthly fee....my opinion of that is bullshit, it may be fine for others to do this like jenna (which i have respect for ) or tmex (which i don't) but it's not my cup of tea. so you have this idiot running around claiming to be the best stock picker in the world and getting in every hot stock before the news hits (more bullshit) the sad thing is many of you believe this garbage.....go and sent a PM to some of these other top threads and see if you get a response, i try to answer every message i get (execpt for trial members and a few newbies) and believe me i get a ton of them. i could have 20 winners in a row and come out with one bad call and many of you want to string me up. example: i posted yesterday a warning about GERN because it was being pumped up like a BB stock, it was enough to make me sick so i'm sure this kept some of you from buying....well big mistake on my part and it cost me a bundle, i had 2000 frickin shares at 9 bucks that i sold before the close....but there always is another train coming. I DON'T tell anyone what to do or what stocks to buy or sell i just state my opinion and my positions which is more then what others do. my main thing is always to be honest and not bullshit anyone, if i don't know about a stock i don't go around making up things to make it look like i'm a mister know it all....i post my losses and my mistakes as a trader hoping that some of you can learn from my mistakes. i never come on this thread or any other and brag about what stocks i win on.....big deal, anyone can claim this BS but leaving the ego off the thread and admit your mistakes is far more valuable then claiming to be a master trader. it's seems as thought this thread has become a bit too much for me and i will either keep it going or ask SI to delete it....i will make think about it over the weekend and decide by monday...if i do KILL the thread i wish you all the very best and i will keep in contact with some of you (and you know who you are) via PM or better yet email. regards t
