[Totally OT] Got this in an email. Pretty astounding. Anagrams An Anagram, as you all know, is a word or phrase made by transposing or rearranging the letters of another word or phrase. No letters can be used twice or left out. The following ones are exceptionally clever (someone out there either has way too much time on their hands or is deadly at Scrabble): Word/Phrase Anagram ---------------------- ------------------------ Dormitory Dirty Room Evangelist Evil's Agent Desperation A Rope Ends It The Morse Code Here Come Dots Slot Machines Cash Lost in 'em Animosity Is No Amity Mother-in-law Woman Hitler Snooze Alarms Alas! No More Z's Alec Guinness Genuine Class Semolina Is No Meal The Public Art Galleries Large Picture Halls, I Bet A Decimal Point I'm a Dot in Place The Earthquakes That Queer Shake Eleven plus two Twelve plus one Contradiction Accord not in it This one is truly amazing: "To be or not to be: that is the question, whether its nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune." ANAGRAM: "In one of the Bard's best-thought-of tragedies, our insistent hero, Hamlet, queries on two fronts about how life turns rotten." And for a contemporary one: "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind." (Neil Armstrong, on the moon) ANAGRAM: "A thin man ran; makes a large stride, left planet, pins flag on moon! On to Mars!" Aside from the "woman Hitler" one, this is the best...you're not going to believe this: "President Clinton, of the USA" ANAGRAM: "To copulate, he finds interns"

The answer is a 95% accuracy. A thread becomes all abuzz as the thread stock rises, but you don't go short until the buzzing cools. You can run a moving average of posts/day, normalize it against moving average of price, and go short when the buzz rate inflexes. By that time the stock is already correcting but is usually in a consolidation of the correction. When the stock reaches the downtrend, if it exists, you limit order short in. This technique doesn't work so well when the total thread posts exceeds say, 10,000, because there is too much white noise. (OTs)
