It's now Tuesday evening, 48 hours since Rowshan made his first call. Let us examine his performance. I will make no comment except factual remarks based on his calls published by himself on this very thread, and the market results: He made three calls overall: the market should be bought on Monday and would move up from the open; oil stocks would sell off Monday; and Tuesday would also be a profitable day to buy the market. "Rowshan is calling for a higher stock market monday. If you're a "trader" this means you buy and go long monday's action." SPY opened at 132.09. Closed at 131.45. Net loss of 0.64 or 0.48% not including transactions costs and slippage. Rowshan was wrong. "it looks to me like the oil stocks will be down tomorrow, so by Rowshans extrapolation: oil stocks down, market up." OIH opened at 214.67, closed at 224.21, up 9.54 or +4.44%. Rowshan was wrong. "Tuesday will be another green day for the S&P." S&P closed at 1314.29, down 0.28% on the day. Rowshan wrong again. So, let's review his performance. Assuming no leverage was used, he had: 0.48% loss on SPY Monday. 4.44% loss on OIH Monday. 0.28% loss on SPY Tuesday. Total performance over 2 trading days = -5.2%. This works out at an annualized rate of return of -99.84% before transactions costs and slippage. Win rate was 0/3. Those are the facts, ladies and gentlemen. Draw whatever conclusions you wish. I will now leave this thread, as I believe the FACTS speak for themselves.
It's hard pleasing cutten. From the looks of the following link, cutten has previously stalked me on Pabsts blue ribbon Journal. On such journal, I was 5 for 6 trading big capitalization, high volatility stocks. I enjoyed a win ratio of 83% and I made big profits with calls BEFORE the fact (ask Pabst for verification. That's Pabst, whose upstanding ET reputation makes cutten look like timmay). Still was still not good enough for poor ole cutten. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showt...95351&highlight=now+just+bragging#post1695351 according to cutten: "other people on here have done better than 5/6 and have done much better than 10% or lower profits." Really? Where? And why is cutten so obssessed with me if the facts speak for themselves?
Clearly Cutten's post is about your current performance, not what you did in the remote past. If possible, try dealing with the subject at hand like an adult. Also the idea that people are stalking you gets you no sympathy. Like most of your comments, it is smoke screen to take the focus off you and place it on others... I'm not calling you an incompetent scew-up. That would be harsh. Instead I am looking at your performance and observing that you don't demonstrate any real skills If you want to show us something, try writing a commentary that deals intelligently with the vagaries of the market. You could suggest a probable market scenario and then tell us what you intend to trade including entries and risk (stop losses). That kind of commentary would get you some respect, as opposed to saying "uhhhh the market is going up tomorrow, everybody buy stocks (I have no clue which ones) and sell oil, okay then you're on your own, bye" Frankly I don't think you have the skills. Not a personal thing really. I am just acknowledging that this is very difficult to do. Not many can get it right, and so far you have driven this bus right into the wall. Good luck with whatever new alias you decide on. Steve

** Rowshan Report ** Rowshans report is calling for major downside in commodity related stocks for wednesday. Yes good people, there may be 5-10 points to be made on the downside in certain $80 and up commodity related stocks. good luck!
LOL ... it had initially occured to me that this might be a smear campaign to discredit the real Bob Roshawn and make him look like a complete friggin idtiot ... but no one ever showed up denouncing this guy as being his evil twin, so nah, I guess not.
You know, I do remember the few posts that I made in that thread. I also remember your so-called stock picks. Picks made after the market closed, at a time when no one could make a trade. Prior to earnings news. So that when a stock went in your favor, it could never be duplicated. Any of that ring a bell with you? Same thing here really, except here you don't even mention what you're trading. You're trading a cash index that you can't trade, after the market closes. LOL. Paper trading at it's finest. OldTrader
