Nobody drove MS away. He went into a coma resulting from the shock of hearing his new baby's first words. "Papa, TA works!!".
I've yet to hear a squeak from Surf saying "hey, I got it wrong with the DJIA short, big error, I need to review my trading style and relook at Pricedrivers". All we've ever heard is how experienced Surf is and what a load of crap TA is. It's similar to walking into a church and vocally swearing at the parishioners, you just don't do that sort thing, same with ET, so don't pump your chest out claiming superiorty while pushing your barrow under Sponsor immunity.
A bad call? He repeatedly made the call several times and GUARANTEED it over and over again. I have never heard of a so called expert repeatedly guaranteeing a market call over and over even when they were wrong. He even said this call was based on his insights into the market. Hosting ET parties makes you a market expert? Graciously? So he paid for all the food and liquor and hosting and never got sponsors to pay for the costs? Hmmm
