Mr Wei, He called for a 30% short on JBOH, which implies that he anticipates that the stock will tade higher and he is building a position. Hraka

Wang - nobody can hit the peaks exactly. A@P's shorts usually tank within an hour, which is exceptionally accurate. Try shorting at random and holding and see where you end up. Kailash

Tony has posted his trading record, that is, the buys and sells. What you describe looks like "mark to market" at a given point in time. You are wrong to use the term "refuse to put in your record" when describing a decision to not post arbitrary mark to market stats. Dave

Mr. Wei -- just my experience, but the trades where I've made the most are the ones where the position started out small and I shorted more at higher levels. PRFM and IMON are two examples, where the first shorts were well away from the high. When I don't make much money is when I put in 25% as on OMGA and it gaps down instead of up. (I was hoping for a one or two point gap up this morning but still glad I was in.) I'm in on all trades I can be with around 25% in case it goes down (like OMGA) and I average up on the ones that go up (like JBOH). If you think this is a science where you can go 100% at the high every time, please tell me your thread and I will read every one of your posts -- but I'll wait until you can say you hit every high on the mark before I put any money in.

"Short at $9 3/8 is a bad trade compared with short at $11. " I always enjoy folks who can look at prices in hindsight and say why didn't you sell/buy at the top/bottom? Wang, you must be a very talented trader to be able to call the toptick. "I remember last time you shorted JBOH at $11 3/4 but the stock hit $25 next day." You seem to forget he covered the same day at a profit. It's interesting how all of Tony's critics forget important data, and think that selling/buying the top/bottom is easy. Barb

I can't believe your post. Hindsight is 20/20. Anthony doesn't claim to be perfect. Why do you bother monitoring this thread if your abilities so far exceed those of Anthony's? BTW it was only to be a partial buy. I bought at 9 1/4 and I'm not complaining. A little heart flutter over 11, but not complaining.
