Skiracer's stock slopes

[Websman]

Me bored??? Never...I've just been busy.

I'll be here until I'm a wrinkled old Vulcan...unless of course, the VTP becomes the latest rage...jejeje

[Lyehopper]

All I can say is: What more do you want?

Want FA? Got the best stock picker in the USA right here, a few folks with him that probably run #2, #3, and #4.

Want TA? Got Runner, Spike, and a few others who can give you a plan to trade.

Want humor? Lye-baby, Rob, Webs, and a few others ought to keep you rolling in the aisles.

Want to daytrade? IIC probably is #1 in the USA.

Want market info? IIC is an encyclopedia. Period. He knows where to find the info.

Want some hot picks of stocks that are on the move? Every day Jim and Dave and IIC and others are throwing gold dust on the board.

Want to learn the science of Elliott Wave, TA, and FA? You can grab it all right here.

Want to learn options trading? I admit this is the weakest link here, and that's because I haven't worked at posting more stuff for the forum. But at least somebody could ask a specific question and get some kind of an answer.

And do you want all this information on a forum where you can ask questions at every level of learning and get a polite and considerate answer? This is the most civil board I know of. And if anyone isn't civil and kind, he learns that skill here, too.

I think this site has everything but financing for your portfolio
So I say: what more do you want?

hmmmmmm good points dude.... Maybe I shouldn't complain. Sorry....

Do you get the feeling that this forum is a just boring as hell lately dude? What's going on? I just ain't having fun here like I used to. Spike has basically split, Ski has quit, Webs is bored, I'm bored, Jiesen posts about once a week, I guess the rest of the regular old timers are over at Spikes Blog or private Group or something. Ernie's even bored and rarely posts anymore. ....This just sucks!....lol

Me split?! No way dude. I've still been postin'.....just not as much is all. And there's no private group stuff goin' on. That google group is just a way to receive emails for every blog post I make, it ain't private and sure not tryin' to lure others away from here. I'm sure plenty of people here do visit the blogs because the traffic report suggests movement from here to there, but I doubt this forum is decreasing in size. I'd be interested (Karel or Ernie) if you have noticed any increased traffic here from my blog where I've made a point to link and referenced to this forum. I want the blog concept to be helpful to this forum, not a hinderance. But it's only been a few weeks, and I don't think I've done enough linking to drive new traffic there yet. I probably just need to work on content and kurb appeal and links and it'll increase. I've got a bunch of ideas for content and it's just a matter of time to set it all up. I may lose interest if I don't get sufficient support or interest and fade into oblivion hehe.

But this forum is great. Which is why I'm "linking" here at every chance.....to try and drive more people here to share the good stuff and the spirit that I know exists here, and help others improve their trading. And that's my goal; to help people improve. I think the interaction here is a great way for that to happen; as long as the regulars don't lose interest, which is what some may be tempted to do. Just take a vacation if you're feelin overcooked or bored. When you're gone you'll soon realize that there really is quality to be found here, and the spirit of "it's all good" is one worth fighting for. And it might just inspire you to say no to the temptation to be negative or biased or rudely opinionated or knock someone else's success, or viewpoint, or plan to become a better and more consistant trader. When we all focus on being good people and tolerant and helpful and encouraging....that's when people will be inspired and drawn here.

And speakin' of forum "spirit", I think I made a dent in that recently in the POTW cheap stock debate. Ski, maybe I need to apologize publicly for upsetting you in the POTW thread. I know I PMed you an "I'm sorry", but I note you ignored my earlier 2 posts like I'm not even here....maybe you just lost your glasses or sumfin hehe.....but if you're still harboring ill feelings about what I said, please forgive a knucklehead cuz I didn't wanna cause hard feelins like that.

NB, I love ya man....always a blessin' when I or others lose their way. Thanks for reminding us of some of the reasons why this place is excellent. I'll always be around even though I am doin' the blog thing that Lye and probably others can't make sense of.

Night all.

I'm having more fun just reading everything than I ever did actually posting. It's amazing how large the need for recognition is in some individuals. From a technical standpoint I would be wary of any technician who didn't know a RAF Regression Channel when they saw one and then tried to explain it away as just lines between points. Alive and well in lurkingland.

I guess everyone deep down wants to be HUUUUGE!!!! Good to hear from you dude!

George Soros never buys anything that doesn't make money or appreciate in value. He's taken a big position in this little monkey in his hedge fund recently. Still early on and plenty of unrestricted resistance above it to $7.50 and higher. Almost a classic double bottom cup with the second bottom just not quite low enough to be a classic DB but decent. Handle not a classic but ok. Nice impulse up today on 6 times average volume. The only thing I don't like is that recent big gap up but better to gap up than down. I think it could be ready to fly. Closed today very close to the high of the day on strong volume. Very good.

George Soros = pretty good investor but pretty lousy character

You're Welcome IIC....

Hey Doug!.... Do you get the feeling that this forum is a just boring as hell lately dude? What's going on? I just ain't having fun here like I used to. Spike has basically split, Ski has quit, Webs is bored, I'm bored, Jiesen posts about once a week, I guess the rest of the regular old timers are over at Spikes Blog or private Group or something. Ernie's even bored and rarely posts anymore. Heck, Since Scifos started ignoring me I can't even pick a decent fight here anymore! This just sucks!....lol

I love the forum as much as ever, despite the increased noise level. I admit it takes a lot longer now to get to every post, and to the meat of the forum, but the increased activity also means there are more gems to find, if you just look harder. Unfortunately for me, I haven't had as much time lately to spend on here as I had in the past. (I'm currently training for a marathon in June, which takes more time than it's worth, imo) But that'll pass, and I'll be back to posting all hours of the evening again before you know it.

Also, my investments are pretty much on autopilot right now, and I seem to get a lot more animated, financially, when the targets are hitting, and I'm making 15% profits... there's been a lull in that, but it'll come back, and I'll be bouncing off the walls when it does, for sure! In the meantime, just trying to keep up with all of you wizards' posts every day, and all of the reports these companies keep sending me (anyone else reading this latest PRX annual report? good stuff!) is almost more than I can handle at the moment.

<< George Soros never buys anything that doesn't make money or appreciate in value. >>

Guess that's why he took a $1 billion+ beating on his foray shorting bonds last year.

Soros invested $27 million in Al Gore in "04".... Gore hasn't appreciated in value very much since then dude....jejeje

hmmmmmm.... maybe he'd buy into my GoJi venture.

Thank you for that tidbit and please forgive my exhuberance. The use of the word "never" was foolish and perhaps a bit stupid on my part. But it's nice to have a billion to lose on any foray and still be solvent after the fact. I'll make sure I contain myself around you guys in the future. Always nice to be brought back to terra firma.

I wish he would, then maybe I'd be able to get my hands on another shot at it. Sorry hon, I'll never do that again.

LOL!!!!.... oh no!.... I'm sorry hon!.... please be patient with me, as the GoJi is in very short supply this time of year.... (looks for aproval.... gets a blank stare) uhhhhhh.... Maybe We could call the sitter?.... I could take you out to a nice dinner at "The Coach and Four" this weekend or something.... Yes they are pretty arent they?.... I picked them just for you in the edge of the hay field this afternoon.... No? I don't want sex.... well.... sure! of course I still think you're attractive!........ SLAP!!!!! (Lye slaps himself).....OUCH!.... oh sorry Ski, after 22 years.... sometimes you just pop into "automatic mode".

You know the drill to well Lye. Poor Mrs. Lye and Mrs. Ski having to put up with us. Lisa, my wife, just rolls her eyes back in her head and gives me the ice cube stare. Colder than the ice guy in that Batman flick. Usually good for two days of ice cold quiet before she gives in to my usual line of BS.

Watching ECOL very closely here for an entry. This could be a nice buy point late this afternoon.
