Enough of the blame game...if we need to point a finger we need to go to the bathroom and point at that face in the mirror. This is an ass kicking if we do not learn from it.

1. All the warning signs were there.
a. Not normal Premium
b. Set time for release
c. Early time for release
d. Warning from APS morning of release
e. relentless selling into Premiums
f. no real bid support shown
g. lack of coordinated emails

2. We chose not to believe them because we wanted a play. We hit the buy buttons. Rules in IBOX says don't play more than you can afford, many did. Rules say minimize losses, do not allow small losses to become big losses.

In the end our desire for a play, and our wanting to play allowed our greed to take over, something APS is good at farming.

From here forward, we need to remember this day. Remembder how you feel as you look at your portfolios and do something that will keep you from feeling that empty spot in your gut from now on. In other words approach each play with the caution of dealing with people that want to take money from your account and protect that portfolio. Play the momo and never ever give any promotor a free pass.

My post are for entertainment only...if you knew me better I'd be on ignore

Quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and return it to your pocket
