I agree with you partially. Looking at all the charts I think 50% is being pretty conservative. Then if you protect your capital at least, you should come out even. But if you play with house money and play that conservatively you should win.
I agree in that I will not ALWAYS make a winner. But like when I played ball I never went to the plate not thinking I was going to get on base and every ball was a strike until I chose not to swing at it.
If I start a play NOT THINKING I can win something then why play?
I agree EM... Years of Bid History plus at .04 (If I am doing the research correct) APS would have to push it sub penny to start the play. That is not their MO.
Question: I have heard you talking of "Past" pumpers. If it can be said, about how long do these groups operate...or do they just change names...and in the near future if APS falls by the way, will there just be another good pumper take its place?
I agree
Thank you Ken for the ppt. If I learned anything by this is that conservative trading strategies should have profited on most of the alerts....
Get in and take the 50%, protect capital, and MAYBE risk the free shares for more profit but maybe all the time taking some profit out?
That would be great Ken...I would appreciate that also.
Good Nite ATA... Ball Game is over!
Thank you. I might save my funds for the "more sure" (lol) APS play. Just sit on the side lines and watch TBX.
if TBX comes out early in the week with their call...Do they usually run up fast enough to get in and then out with some profit if the APS pick comes later in the week?
Well said Motivated. I know that if I had not been a part of the challenge and this board I would now not be in the position to trade anymore. But, as it is I still have life and can learn.
While I am not playing against the people who, to me, are throwing a bucket full of money on each play, I can build mine up to that point, at some point, by learning to trade well.
And, when some other noobie comes in and looks down the board they might see someone who played 50,000 and someone who played 135.00 and they both have increased their winnings. That should be encouraging to learn to build a conservative strategy and stick to it.
Nite my friend. I can't yet...lol
I wish you could see it. I don't like teams that live on Gorilla ball... but if he stays healthy we could see records this year.
the Rangers are hitting on all cylinders and then through Hamilton in the mix. I think the Bull Pen has like 1.8 era. with a rookie who is throwing like a vet and has 4 wins out of the pen.
this is the season (so far) that we have dreamed of for years... but of course it is not All Star break yet.
Yu Darvish the new pitcher from Japan is dominating. He has 7 pitches that he has command of right handed and can throw 85 with a breaking ball left handed.
He had 18 bases that 5 for 5 night. Set AL records
You are missing a SHOW... Hamilton has hit 8 homeruns in his last 17 AB's.... I think it was Tuesday against Baltimore he went 5 for 5 with 4 homeruns and a double. He also the hit the warehouse in Baltimore.
Glad we are not trading tomorrow. The Ranger/Angels game was rain delayed and it is only the 3rd inning. Gonna be a late night...But the Rangers might lose if I am not watching!
lol...I remember those days.
I like the Hillbilly catfishing. We used to go to Lake Texhoma each spring and Noodle. You can do it on the Oklahoma side but not in Texas waters.
Me too... and my wife cannot stand it.
Nite Gopher...have a great weekend
Always....the reason you keep a cat in the barn is because they are better at catching mice than you are.
Yes... and we taught them how!
Nite fastpitch...may you sleep all night long!
We can laugh at it Gopher...but killin' aint fun and for most it ain't easy.
I agree... I guess that is something I can't get over as much as I try.
I support our kids today...but people forget we were in country for 20 years and hardly anyone coming back in the late 60's and 70's didn't get spit on and heard all kinds of names. Set down in an airport in uniform and you had plenty of room.
I am glad our boys and girls are appreciated now.
My apologies for my statement. I should not have assumed...
Thank you for your service...
BLACK HORSE!
I doubt he understand what you just said!
Good...but I don't think I have to worry about it effecting my income tax though
nite, Heddie....enjoy the family
I know! I am so ready. Heck if I hadn't committed to the upcoming, any day now, get ready her it comes, APS play I would have been able to play other plays and lost what little money I have left of my SEED!...lol
I wish etrade would pay interest on the cash I have in my account. I might be able to by one or two more shares of whatever we get into ;-0
You are probably correct!
Maybe the Best Mother's Day Song ever written:
I'll send you address...lol
Have a good night...again thanks for what you and your Mod Squad are doing1
I am taking my wife out for supper tonight on my winnings this week. I wonder what she will get on the dollar menu at Micky D's?
I wonder if she will loan me the money to pay for it?
My boy lived in Portland for a while. He rode his bicycle around the US and fell in love with SF and Portland for their Bicycle mentality.
I know what you mean about catching up on posts. Wednesday when all hell broke loose I got home from church about 9:00 and started reading post. I went to bed about midnight.
I have only been with the board about three weeks I think and it has exploded in just that small amount of time!
People are drawn to good things!
MMMMEEEEEGGGGGGAAAAA!!!!! LOL
Ken...off the top of my head it doesn't bother me for others to see what I am doing here. While I started with a good deal more, without leadership I lost a bunch and now have very little...but I still have some. If I lose it, I go home.
I appreciate the leadership and others on this board because now I fell like I might have a chance. thanks
Now about the idea of APS seeing what this board will drop. I have not totaled our first play...never had any desire to. But, what is the percentage of our play to what was played on RARS in the last three days? Does our "collective" power really have APS concerned?
