Yeah, @KCalhoun You're a good example. You went on a tear like 2 weeks ago when I asked a question that you didn't like, ripped into me and basically lost your mind for a bit. I did not ignore you then, but simply stopped responding. Now we are back at peace-time and the threads continue as usual. With the ignore thing, there would have to be back and forth to try to get it straightened out, paperwork in triplicate, yada yada. But with the ignore feature? It just wreaks the place. Folks, if you feel you MUST use the ignore feature, I implore you...Just do it on a temporary basis if you have to? Like if you need a break from a poster, maybe do a 3-day thing, then check your ignore list and lift off folks after you've had time to cool-off or whatever? *shrugs*
Good idea re temp ignore As usual I welcome debates about trading and disagreements or questions, sometimes useful ideas come up
Exactly, that is why I never use the ignore feature. Because no matter I may "dislike" a person's attitude or behavior, one never knows when that person may come out with a gem of advice or tidbit. To close yourself off from that opportunity seems totally wrong and disadvantageous. Ya' never know from where the good bits may come, and traders need every opportunity they can find to make a better trading strategy/decision. Traders are hippos, and tidbits are white balls.
True wisdom. Right on, Overnight. Even beyond these online forums, what you're saying would help a lot of people recognize more profitable opportunities in all aspects of life.
3 days might be to short tho. I do it for 1 year temporary. Actually, 2 people recently got unblocked.(~1 year passed) One is still in another dimension/outer space. Yet, saw another one - writing few decent posts. Thus yes - perma, naaah, but temporary it's okay. OP - as someone wrote previously, in a similar topic of prediction like this - you need to clarify - which year, for the prophecy to be complete.
As I said earlier, I think permabulls (new high by end of this month) and permabears (take out March lows be end of April) are both wrong. Here's a more realistic guess...will the market be closer to the all-time high (3393) or March low (2191) by the end of April? The mean is of those two numbers is 2792, about 30 points higher than today's close. I'm too lazy to create a poll (and am not into predicting markets except for fun), but if I had to place a guess, I'll say it will be above 2792 (closee to the ATH).
