Everybody needs an enemy. So for you bears out there, you NEED stock_trad3r! If it wasn't him, it would be some other bull you'd be ripping on, even though stock_trad3r does deserve the ripping!
Insecure? Me? No, I'm not insecure. I will not be accused of being insecure. I am as secure as the next person. Really, I am.

Yes, ET has a lot of noise, but so do the markets. The trick with dynamic environments is in knowing what's signal and what's noise and in knowing that what used to be noise has become signal.
