    they have split woodies room into 3 rooms now and are adding up the attendance in each to make 800 woodie followers.

    do they not know that people are in all 3 rooms at the same time and therefore are being triplicated???

    ...all alone am I.
    So I stuck my head in to “Teddy’s CCI” room yesterday – I’m not sure why, but I did. You see, when I joined the Wooden One’s room, it was for a very specific reason – it had nothing to do with the company, or any of that – it was to see what the CCI was all about – period.

    Anyway, I got to thinking about it last night. Am I some kind of a snob? A social misfit? Or could it go even deeper – something that sets me apart from the rest of the crowd?

    I am me, and you are you (ain’t that profound) – we each got here by following a different path. So I got to wondering about the people who seem to need, who seem to thrive in a chat room environment vs. the lone wolfs, such as I.

    I’ll bet that almost all of the people in chat rooms either have siblings, or at least come from close extended families. But I am an only child, with virtually no family members in close proximity. It seems perfectly normal to me to be by myself – hell, even most of my working life was spent in a room by myself.

    I am always amazed to find that others are amazed that I have no interest in wanting to be buddies. I shouldn’t tell you this, but most days I sit here in silence – I don’t even have the radio on. And so what do I do all day? I do what I have always done – I entertain myself. That’s how the blog came into being – I think, I ponder, I make up stories to amuse myself – and so I figured why not post them somewhere – you know, for the poor souls who never learned how to entertain themselves – the guys who grew up with brothers and sisters, a slew of kids in the neighborhood their own age – and never had to.

    I’ll bet you that our resident crank over on the blog, isn’t an only child – that’s why he can’t figure me out. At the height of all the madness over my banishment, when the PM’s, e-mails, and phone calls were flying back and forth, the common theme was: You are hurting the group, you are being selfish. It fell on deaf ears – I have no concept of family, just as they have no concept of playing by themselves...…

    Samson Knocks 'em Dead

    Samson, the brightest new star in Woodie’s stable of moderators, wowed the crowd in the popular chat room today.

    See what they’re saying:

    angela: “…he’s soooo good. He makes me forget about Biggs.”

    Gio: “…I love his style. I wish he was my son!”

    Woodie: “He’s really good. All of our moderators are good. But that blog is bad. I hate that blog. If anyone sees that cheese fellow around here, tell one of the moderators right away.”


    Samson and the CCI – what a combination!

    Exclusively at Woodie’s CCI Club!

    personally i dont see wht is the matter with the blog,it is pretty entertaining.......sometimes you just have to view things for thier amusing content.

    though i cant find it now on the blog just recently i posted my own tribute to Dr.Amirparvis and a different entry thanking the various folks tht i knew from Woodies room and in fact Woodie himself for sharing the knowledge over the last couple of years.

    I realize tht probably no one will beleive this but it is still there and you can look it up for yourself...I mentioned a number of traders tht I had enjoyed conversations with over the period not withstanding how our parting occurred...I am still grateful for the early days in paltalk and early hotcomm when all of us had so much fun and there was so much learning going on..

    Regardless of wht folks beleive either then or now I did enjoy it immensly and profited from the interactions of so many people..too many to list here..... but I am sure tht you know who you are and know tht I do cherish the memories despite how we parted ways

    my very best wishes to all tht i still consider to be friends in Woodies room and to Woodie as well for a very Happy and Prosperous New Year

    Good trading to you all and may the wind be always at your back...

  7. I find it a bit strange that he would rather moderate than trade.

  8. For most 'Traders', it is probably a much cheaper way to spend the day. Trading (especially intra-day) can be a very expensive hobby.:D :D :D

    why the devil does there have to be all this whining

    i still use sierra..no disrespect to other software..i am merely a cheap old geezer....

    learn to trade
    get a proftablke setup tht speaks to YOU
    put in the chart time to become comfortable with the pattern
    make a trading plan and dont deviate from it
    who cares if points go by ,,you wil get the points hence money...via your plan

    trade the crap out of your pattern and make money and dont look back...oh gee i could have had 5 more points or whtever

    tht is all rubbish

  10. olmikey,

    Then explain why the "good woodie" is set on narrowing a focus of a traders microscope, just to maintain order in a largely populated chatroom?

    We have a spell check button here...USE IT
