  2. I just think this is a very hard way to make money. Yes, C might find a bottom, but is it going to go back to the old highs? Not in our lifetime. At best you're looking at a small bounce. Why take on all that risk for nothing?

    Robbie, re-read the thread, I've suspended the recomendation before stock went down with stock markets. This entry was into strength. Please stop being an ass.

    I am not suggesting it would go back to the highs, I did post projections earlier in the thread.

    I trade futures, I don't trade stocks, that is the reason I am not actually trading this rec. I am a countertrend trader by character & experience. I have no idea what you're talking about when you say "but is it going to go back to the old highs? Not in our lifetime. At best you're looking at a small bounce. Why take on all that risk for nothing?" What is "all that risk" that you refer to?

  7. Financials have A LOT more issues to work out. There will be more writedowns, dividend cuts, layoffs, need to raise capital, .....etc. Now is not yet the bottom for banking stocks/financials.

    I did not try to call THE bottom, I spotted conditions pointing to a potential bounce which exceeds risk.

  10. no you didn't. you called out a risky low percentage trend fighting trade. you tried to quantify it as low risk because you made up some lofty profit target which was never really attainable. i laid out the scenario correctly and you didn't want to hear any of it. if a trade moves against you that quickly then you clearly didn't grasp the risk, reward, and percentages correctly. you were happy to fight a massive downtrend and dismiss anything i said.

    keep up the elitetrader trend fighting trades!
