Well I must Say...

I have been down from trading for the last few days as a result of switching over my accounts...From Scottrade to Etrade...

I an all honesty...I had spoken with Chartinator about resigning as a Moderator...

This is not directed at anyone inparticular..but...

It seem sometimes that we in fact do have to hold people's hands to help them dig out of a hole they dug before finding out about us...

The bottom line and the reason I am is is this...When I was a "newbie" there were a few folks that helped me get my head on straight and figure out what I was doing...

Although..I never had anyone tell me ...buy here..sell here...

You can't imagine the time that Chartinator and I spend finding picks and correlating data to bring to the board...

Sometimes...not always...it feels like a thankless job...

Not every pick we make is going "to da moon"...but I must say I am suprised and downright awestruck that people have the nerve to question us about trades made months ago...or why didn't we keep this one or why did we sell that one...

We have a plan...It's working...Enjoy it...

Chartinator talked me out of resigning...told me not to give it another thought...

I agreed to stay on...Obviuosly...but the fact of the matter is...people make mistakes...Some made mistakes on their own before they found us...We make mistakes om picks...but jiminy Christmas...We have turned 2,000 bucks into around 35,000 in three months....What more do you wnat from us...

I have personally noticed..that my trading abiltiy has been slowed by helping others...I'm okay with that...because I want to give back...Pay it Forward, if you will...

I think...and this is just me...and I know I'll lose person marks or whatever...but some responsibilty nmust fall on the person making the trade...

If you don't have the money to trade..and you need to pay rent or bills or whatever...then you don't belong in this market...

Fortunately, I have had a good financial basis for entering...it wasn't always roses for me either...

But...We as a group of Moderators cannot be responsible for your decisions...

While I work very closely with Chartinator, I have worked with Geaux Fish...much longer...he is in fact one the folks that helped get my head on straight...I think Tina Marie is just amazing...I seriously doubt anyone ouside of those folks have any idea what it akes to run this board...

I have known FiveStar for a good while now also, and was in fact the one that asked him to become a Moderator when we lost Lemme...

I think some modicum of repspect should be displayed on the board...

We work very hard to do what we do...Think about that before your next what if or why not...

We are not here to be the pumping grounds of desparation for failed plays...

We appreciate input...

But, please let us do our job...

Feel free to block my posts if this hits to close to home for you...
