    "PS-- by the way, what's a "pratt"? Google doesn;t seem to have any derogatory meanings of the word"
    the author, sheda, misspelled prat and you attempted to make him look foolish.

    British
    : a stupid or foolish person

    nice try but it didn't work.

    Pratt:

    A neologism based on the abbreviation p.r.a.t.t. for "previously refuted a thousand times", referring to any claim that has been previously debunked, shown to be false, publicly challenged and defeated, or otherwise shown many, many times to be demonstrably and verifiably wrong...

    is that a corollary to einstein's definition of insanity:to repeat something numerous times and to expect a different outcome.

  5. If I had to guess, i would say the concerns here stem from a case of guilt by association--- referring in this case to the 'TA Expurt' who has been a known associate of conrix. As I recall he was accused of being a stealth vendor and a liar, and that accusation was proven to be accurate. I suspect that is what has Surf on high alert...

    Could very well be, but I'm personally indifferent. :)
    It's just entertaining to see the endless back-and-forth.

  7. You attribute these hits to your trading prowess? Perhaps they can be attributed to others contributions or, more likely, people enjoying your silliness. I would not ASSume all these folks are here because you provide value vis a vis your "method". That would be a major leap IMHO

  8. Yes, I believe there may be a direct correlation between the two, if not being the same person. What put my stealth vendor spider sense on high alert was his statements that he was managing money for others, he has some kind of chat room, and he makes insane claims like 20% consistent annual returns are poor performance and that he routinely accomplish this without taking the corresponding risk. ALL snake oil 101---- I could care less if the guy makes all kinds of claims on his own thread--- the mods have to ban him when they find out that he is stealth vendor-- I can't do this-- just please stay off of the surf report. surf

    Because everyone loves a train wreck. By the way, what can you buy at the grocery store for your hits?

  10. I bought a nice watch for my collection and a little mercedes for anna from profits in 2012--- not to mention buying too many groceries judging from my girth......

    :D
