Mama - re: zurdo - very well stated! I was the same way - looking to blame evryone for my inadequcies in trading. Now, I take full responsibilty. Last fall, when I was still a lurker here on SI, I noticed that A@P had questioned one of the stock positions I had as a LONG. I did not blindly sell because Anthony said so, however, it did cause me to do some more DD that resulted in me selling the dog. I saved a boatload of profit that would've been lost. Longs like zurdo never reach that point. They hang on to a stock because they become emotionally involved or just want to "spite" the shorts. Well, both those paths lead to financial problems and they will not admit it no matter how hard you try to rationally express that point - I gave up on them a long time ago! Moby.
