It was only for the faithful that I predicked oil would rebound, and it did. Tomorrow I will point out the accuracy of my other predickshuns. You guessed it. EVERY one of them cummed true. But you see that doesn't count on ET. Best I can tell, it's frowned upon!
That should be interesting. I've had some experience at that prediction business. Your are right, being right doesn't seem to matter, only whether you are "in" and if you're not in you're "out". For me there was too much pressure to perform and I wasn't all that good at it, it didn't really gain me anything. If I felt better I would be like tampa and sit in front of my monitor and trade or, like you, and make witty wits to confound others. But I don't have either of you guys' talents and must wait a few more days to feel better again so will content myself with reading others' postings. Again, fare well.
don't be alarm , you and you and you are not banned, I repeat you are not banned, you just had a bad dream.
Curiouse and curiouser! Are you someone famous? Even infamous? With my demise, ET will need a new false prophet to follow. Wanna try your luck? Mine has been good! The only reason I posted was to persuade the wife that I was right to put her into cash for the next few weeks. Was I right on VIVIX? (A rhetorical question, of course!)
Dear friend, you have been my constant companion in foolishness. You man of few words, I have always wondered if you could speak English worth a shit. I modelled Sid and Merchant on you, striving for the perfect blend of wit and consiseness. But I regret to inform you that your guesses about my aliases are wrong. Perhaps it is because you are not a native English speaker, your ISP being in NY as I recall from the ISP follies. Nor am I that prick Ghoulash, who with all his aliases killed P of T. Not that I begrudge him that. I think he is Jack. Or Liz. Neither am I Mack the Knife, though I wish I were, as he rivals you and Nononsnese for GOOD sense. Je creve. Je meure. Je suis mort!
I just looked back at the hits on my charts, and was astonished to see that if I say that nasty curse word "oil", nobody reads my charts! My most brilliant fucking trade of the day garnered only 10 views! If that ain't bi-ass, I dunno what is! Does that tell you what it tells me?
It tells me most people who are reading your stuff don't have the capital to trade oil. PRSVX made my notebook of what to do if I ever accumulate some extra cash. I'm not famous but have met a lot of people in my travels and have always managed to do something memorable wherever I was at. But no, I don't think I will ever get close to having 15 minutes of fame. So wouldn't qualify even on that account to take up the harness of guru extrordinaire.
Yup, the supposed "mini" of oil is ONLY 500 barrels. I have 10 gallons on gas and three propane tanks in my outbuilding, and a new cord of wood on the driveway, but I'm not sure where I'd put that much crude. My point was that crude prices still influence the market, when there's no other excuse to move it. For all I know harvested urban fart gas does the same thing. A dirty little secret of PRSVX is that it pays 1% per mois in dividends. I'm going to put Mrs. Merchant back in it when it turns. Re fame, grab it. Obviously low humor doesn't cut it on ET. Being terminally serious (or was that seriously terminal?), you'd do great. Try it. All that can happen is that you predict right and get canned. Our advertisers don't want us giving good advice!
Terminally serious. I'll have to wait at least a few years (I hope) before the other way around becomes my modus operandi. I can't stand the thought of being wrong. At worst I can make calls that are market indeterminant. At best, because of the entropy of my model, I'm right first time around. The one good thing I got from reading John Conover's website was his take on the Shannon entropy as it applies to trading and it was simple after all the preparation. That's a gripe I have about some of these blowhards on ET, they are critical as H___ of anything they don't invent or that isn't given to them in whole meals. Too lazy to do even the slightest bit of work to learn something.
