It's all good Max...& so ya know...w/re to communicating w/clarity & thus being concise....I can surely relate....have ya seen some of my lengthy posts yet?.....which is why you can feel free to "call me Ishmail" as I've recently referred to myself as ;)~

Tho I've made a promise to the other board (& this one as well of course) that 1 of my NY's reso's will be to try & take it easy on you guys in that respect....short, to the point, concsise & as topical as possible w/out steppin too high onto my soap box & goin off on a rant or 2 (lol)...that will be my IHub goal heading into '08....& since it's a promise I made....guess I can't say "no promises" either ;)~

& so ya know & since your thing is long term trends....AtaGlance just started up a yrly competition. I love that idea (actually suggested it several weeks ago but it took another more respected poster to ask for it...since I'm the Dangerfield of that board it seems..lol) because I feel that a 1 month competition doesn't truly make a statement as to how good of a trader one is. Indeed it's the long haul #'s that truly reflect how good you're. So I hope you decide to join up w/us on that one.....would be a hoot to see how we all fair up against each other w/our various styles & strategies over the long & grinding haul.

However I do feel these monthly competitions have helped me tremendously as I've improved over each month.....it's just that at the end of the month everyone feels compelled to go boom or bust over the last few days....which is the reason why I feel the monthly's dont truly give you a real accurate gauge as to what type of a trader you really are.

Cheers!!!
