As Web's World Turns

It's amazing, but every time I go to the IBD board, I get bashed and then get accused of being Mr Market.

Ernie, why do they think I'm you?

I don't have 69 consecutive profitable trades...

Change your name to Mr. Canslim and tell them you have 69 consecutive 7%-8% losses...that oughtta shut 'em up over there...LOL

Webs,
It's been a long time since I've been there. Are there alot of new names. Who among the older regulars are still there? Is Louetta still posting there. Always liked her style and biting sarcasm.

You are the first person I've heard say that.

I go there to read Poorman, and very few others.

Also, I really like reading "Webspam"

Doug,
Maybe I should have said she's a hoot and her posts are entertaining. I did find alot of her posts informative. Her blantant frankness and personality could be bothersome if you were the one it was aimed at and she had aimed her sarcasm and remarks in my direction more than once.

Is "Webspam" the evil non - vulcan half brother of "Websman" ?

Yes he is, and he's not a very popular individual on the IBD boards.

The attacks against me on the IBD boards are getting quite hilarious.

I recommend that you go on the offensive.

I don't really follow the mindless drones over there ...Poorman is good for the style he promotes...but besides that...it is pretty cr*ppy...Although, I will give them one thing...I met my trading partner there...Doug(IIC)

I think you're right. Their post's are getting totally ridiculous and absurd.

[skiracer]

That's the biggest reason why I left plus a few others. This site is definitely the best for intelligent dialogue and decent people.

...as Spike would say, I let emotions take over and didn't stick to my plan...

Yep, that's what happened. And kudos to you for seeing/saying it. I'm sure this lesson will remind others what can happen when you don't stick to your plan.

Don't emotions just frustrate the fire out of ya!? As I type this, and only the very next trading day you exited your VPHM position, I see that it has gapped up and is running bullishly despite your Vulcan sensibilities. You correctly re-evaluated your decision and your new plan was a good one. But alas you are left with the emotion of regret as you watch this puppy march onward without you. If I may be so bold as to offer advice to a Vulcan; let it go brother, don't try and chase something that has left without you. You made the error and it's done....water under the bridge. VPHM is now like every other stock out there; your re-entry into it has the same chance of being a great one as any other stock on the planet. If you were holding, you'd be looking to protect your profit and you'd be looking for the wisest exit now; not the wisest entry. Take your medicine, learn from your mistake, comit to changing your behavior for future trades, and walk away content that you took 50% profit from a stock that turned into a monster without you. Hunt for the next truly great entry; instead of emotionally chasing an entry to seek revenge. Stalk your next trade, and pounce with Vulcan determination and surprise us all again with your Hugeness at being able to enter BEFORE a huge move, not after one And if that next one is to be VPHM, then so be it. Just be patient, and make the plan a great one, and I may even follow you!

Spike,
Amen. Webs, as Spike said this is the best education you could ever get in this type of situation. This one will stick in your head for a long time and you'll most likely never let it happen to you again after this one. Let this one go an use the experience to your benefit.

Spike,
Thanks.
We have heard it, but we all need the reminder, at least I do.
I appreciate it.

btw, Ski, that is why I left IBD too. Half of it was because of the bashing on Mr. Market. They couldn't see the value of his posts, and he was the best at sharing his due diligence. Thanks Mr. Market.

[Websman]

But Spike...it hurts so bad.

I only got a 50% profit! BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! Sniff...sniff....


No problemo! Take a look at ELN! It's just getting started and I'm making money! You can't keep a Vulcan down.
