Word is she's at the Java Treatment Center at Trembling HIlls. Wishing her a speedy recovery
I think chris8sirch says it best when he speaks of relying on "sure things", risk vs reward. I get texts from Fat Cat Penny Stocks every few days. Some of their picks do well...many do not. I get them for amusment more than anything else. I have never played one of their picks due to the "sure thing"/risk vs reward philosophy. I'm not willing to risk hard earned money on a 50/50 or even a 60/40. Give me a APS, TBX, SMA pick on the first day. That's money. Everything else is gambling. I gave up that sort of gambling a long time ago. ($500 while in college Raiders +3 1/2 @ Denver. $500 in college was a lot of money back then. That's when gambling seased being fun)
I think your research is pretty thorough for the time frame you covered. Not a major reliable consistant stock promoter (not yet anyway)
Agreed, 100%, right on.
Reminds me of this guy....remember this guy? :p
Your opinion is yours Caroline, so don't apologize. More power to you. I think the guy is a great trader, but I find his arrogance and demeanor leaves a lot to be desired. The guy could be a great trader...and be a little more humble; not coming across so pompous. I could care less who he dates or is married to...and would actually feel sorry for her. (A real conceited woman would be the perfect match though. They could run a reality show just watching who is in front of the mirror more) There's another opinion for ya. ;)
I think I'd need to see a lot more than Friday to get back in. Looking to see MM's on the day pushing before I'd risk it. Are you playing tomorrow?
Not trying to sound like a smartass...but for one thing..a pulse. That would be the first thing I'd look for. If there's any kind of action tomorrow, it's still in play. Trade sideways or go red...I'd stay away.
The DD you're doing is exactly what the board needs...on any promo. I have nothing against Xtremepicks and honestly, if they've turned some kind of corner and are more consistant...I for one would welcome it with open arms. I just know from my own experience they're NOT consistant and deliver more losers than winners. I'd love for that to no longer be the case. It just seems like there's an awful lot of chatter the past few days about Xtremepicks and, for the record, they're NOT an ATA endorsed promo for those who don't know that. They seem to be onto a pick recently that has done well and that's about the extent of it for now. Until Ken or the mods put Xtreme in the ibox and endorse them, they're just another of the many promo's out there. That being said, I know I would love to see what you find out about their recent track record. :)
What is this sudden push for Xtremepicks? I'd love to have another Promo to play that's consistant..I'd love it. But Xtreme has been around for some time now. Perhaps they're onto something good presently....but that's one. What about the many misses? I don't get it? If they showed some consistancy I would definately change my mind. But they have yet to do so.....so I don't get it. I hope those playing their current pick do well none the less. (incidentally...this isn't meant for you mrketman57. I hit relpy instead of new post. Sorry)
That'sa good comparison. Follow Xremepicks for a few weeks and you'll see it's just like Orbit or OTCstockreports....just slicker packaging
They don't pump it that long in the same way you would think of APS, TBX, SMA or even BDPS. They throw out a lot of different tickers. DROP did happen, however, Xtremepicks didn't "pump it" for the year it took to make that move you're seeing. They threw it out there like so many tickers...and would mention it here and there over the ensuing months. When it really made it's move, they mentioned it more frequently. What it doesn't mention on their site is how many losers they promoted in the time they first brought up DROP and the time it took for it to make that parabolic move. Again, Xtremepicks is not unique this way. You can Google dozens of daily newsletters that throw out a couple of picks a day and will bring up that "they brought this one pick to your attention" (weeks ago)...but what about the dozen that ended up being nothing? It's throwing darts at a board. Sign up for their newsletter and follow their picks for a few weeks. You will see what I mean. GLTU
They draw attention to a lot of stocks...A LOT. Most end up being nothing or losers. Once in awhile they hit one. There are so many newsletters on the web that do exactly the same thing. Trouble is...to hit that lottery you have to know which one is the winner. So you'd better have a lot of cash to spread around and be okay with losing some of your money on the duds...plus have the patience to wait it out on many of their picks as most of the "winners" take time to pay off. (then you have to, once again, know which is the needle in the haystack and which are losers) It is, drawing the parallel once again, like playing the lottery. Not worth the time, money and effort when in the meantime you can play a few promo's and make that 50% we always talk about. Definately not equal to the promo's in the ATA ibox. Just one man's opinion of course.
I'm reading he will be kept in solitary for now. Presumably until his sentancing in September. After that....all bets are off.
He's about to find out what real justice is...in prison. Even the hardest inmates have no tolerance for abuse of children. Creep
It's kind of the equivilent of a guy trampling a miniature city in a Godzilla costume, with Rodan circling over head (you can see the wires) Not much of a monster as of yet.
Not to complain about the monster bounce but....I usually like my monsters a lot scarier than this. Live to fight another day.
Interesting to watch for sure. I honestly don't know which I am rooting for more..that it recovers, or that it tanks and we move on. I can't imagine there are too many traders out there still in at this level from the $1.40's +. I could be wrong about that. You never know what people are thinking. I suppose, if nothing else, it would be a good trade to get in on to make a few bucks if it does recover. But, then again, so would a new pick. I guess we'll see. I cannot imagine a soiled "reputation" for not crossing $2 would stop too many from leaping in naked screaming "yahoo!" on a new pick in a couple of weeks. Speaking of leaping in naked, I sure hope SBD is enjoying his vacation. :)
It's early but...the monster run isn't looking very scary so far....
I guess I'm slow but...I don't understand the need to "go to town" on anyone. Make money, that's all I care about & quite frankly all most care about. Differences of opinion are healthy. But putting folks down for their opinion...that just doesn't make sense to me.
It may go up from here...may not. Probably a bounce but....I wouldn't expect the promo to return. Either way, weak email.
Maybe they have a plan...maybe they don't. Either way, that was a really weak email IMHO. I've seen better efforts after everyone CLEARLY knows the dump just took place and APS is fulfilling their obligation to the pump right at the end. They'll have to do better than that.
Thanks dude. I think signing up is an excellent idea. Check it out for yourself. I think you'll find it to be interesting....but not worthy of following with any type of regularity. But, this way you'll draw your own conclusions. ;)
They put out several picks at one time...and focus on the one that does something. Just watch them for one week and you'll see what I mean. Like I said, it's just my opinion that, there are a lot of newsletters that do this. I don't see Xtreme as any different. They aren't APS...THX...SMA.........one could even argue BDPS (at least you KNOW you can get a one day pop out of them). They fire a few bullets at a time...and see what hits the mark.
Not a huge fan of xtremepicks. Yes...some of the picks they put out end up doing something. However, just as many do nothing at all. There are a lot of newletters out there with that kind of success rate. Give me a good P&D promo everytime. Thanks
Just got into work and been out of the loop all morning. Just got one thing to say....WALL.....HOLY SH!T! What happend? I hope everyone holding positions got out!
That surprises no one. You've made that crystal clear....several times
The KoolAide-now-black & red-bull himself ;)
I got my one post of the day ban over at the board out of the way (for being too brutally honest I guess). Anyhow I will share this here. Someone we all know and I won't mention his name had a PM chat last week about why he sold before the crash. He said that when the news came out last week and it didn't make a difference to the PPS, that was a signal to him. Today, after last night's "BIG" news, I didn't see the PPS affected by such BIG news as it kissed a .05 gain from the close and lingered .02-.03 high most of the morning. Remembering the conversation I had with this person, I started thinking "this BIG news hasn't moved the PPS that much now has it?" So....I sold. I'd like to thank him for sharing that insight with me last week. He knows who he is and if he chooses to acknowledge this post, I will leave that up to him. Made a nice profit off the 2nd wind. Thanks again.
Reading is fundamental. Give it a try
Not here buddy
Better learn to reel that impatience in my friend. It'll be your undoing
No one from ATA should have lost a dime on that skunk. BDPS was spelled out in bold and caps before that POS was even announced. Hopefully everyone heard the message. ;)
Could be worse...the BDPS "pick of the week" (according to their final loser promo email) is hovering around .04. ;)
For when that "special moment" catches you?
I believe you are right sir. Thank goodness TBX didn't hang us out to dry.
It seems every week we all think THIS is the week GWBU breaks out. Yet every week it coasts along a little up....a little down...a little up again. This could go on for some time. We could be doing this a couple of more weeks. Even when major "news" is thrown out...barely a blip on the radar. When GWBU has appeared it was going to take off, the MM huge bid support pushes it up....then disappears. This play is unlike any other APS play I know I've ever seen. I don't see anything now that ignites this fire anymore than the past few weeks. But then again...maybe that's exactly the plan. It'll happen when they're ready as full control is obviously in their hands. Up to now, they haven't wanted it to go parabolic. No telling when that is. All I know is, the longer this drags on, the crazier the big move could be.
Greed could prevail. However, I think bag holders have been selling all along up until now. Could push through easily. Could stall. Large buys late afternoon and the campaign machine in high gear...could be fun. That many "could's" in one post, I could have read one too many promo emails. ;)
