My good man Y. Gross still is seeing it right now. And as of this morning another apprentice of mine "lafayette" can not log in still. We will see later.

I just put up a link that might drive some traffic....let's see.

I became a member, and signed in here yesterday, but what I see here is not normal.
I belong to many other Sites , and members post all over the place.
Why don't the members in here post anything, thats what sites like this are here for.
Other sites have 50 - 60 +  members logged on all the time.
It's a little strange .
that is just IMO, maybe I'm not a member long enough.

30-40 guests on right now...I don't think there's any access issues.

It is because this one is only a year old and the other reason is the past two days have been the craziest two days EVER in here. The site was down, my board was hacked and deleted, many accounts were erased, and all new members were. And now I have members who can't even see the homepage.

Normally it is a bit busier but it is more quiet here because we make sure ONLY quality gets through. I only operate my board and don't pay attention to the rest of the site.

But I know for a fact Justin and other mods are on top of deleting all pumps and keeping only the highest qulaity of info. Most traders are stupid. They dont know how to trade. They dont do it for a living. All they do is hype.

All other chat boards are that. Hype. There is not one professional trader that spends all day "chatting" about stocks on random message boards. Only hype artist.

This could explain why you see more activity. I doubt this board will be that quiet in five years.

Thank you for all your observations.

Realize that the past two days have been the worst two days of this site since inception. My board is the most active by far and had a TON of post. It was erased on Tuesday. Hopefully, we can get the archives back this weekend.

42 current guest. Guess that posting helped, krill. LOL.

I hate to tell you the facts but 99% of everyone who attempts to make a career out of trading fails.

You may not be stupid. But when I use the word stupid I am speaking of people giving stock advice without having a proven record of making money and/or really know what they are doing. Most people just pump whatever they are bagholders of.

I have been around long enough and spend over 12 hours a day on this stuff. I have seen TONS of "knowledgable" posters all of a sudden disappear. Not once, not twice, not one hundred times...many more.

Go to #daytraders or #activetraders chatrooms. Memorize peoples name get their emails and see if they are trading for a living three years from now. These are your most chatty types.

Professionals that chat alot obviously love what they do.

I am a stupid trader!!!! This is a game that is never mastered. I am always stupid to the big stock market.

RevShark and TokyoJoe both asked me to partner with them. So obviously I have something go for me.

But I still think I am a stupid trader. Did anyone see BIDU? Wasn't I long that loser?

Until I bat 10 for 10 I am still a stupid trader.

Where did you post that link at krill?

Where did my Redsox-loving sidekick go? roflmao.

It sure isn't as much fun watching the Marlins vs. Braves as it is watching the BoSox, Tigers, Mets, or Cardinals.

Maui....
thanks, but even you can't say and tell what stock to buy, because the Market is
nothing but a Gamble, lol , and I don't care how long you're in this business
JIMO

I'll never tell Vince   Now that I'm back and active you're gonna see more traffic here I think....well at least I hope so.  Any thoughts on the latest treatise on my blog?

have you ever heard of the CANSLIM method?

If the market was a gamble then how in the hell am i doing it for a living for the past six years?

It is not a gamble.

Look at my record in bull markets I am 70% right. In bear markets I am 50%. Cutting losses around 10% or less always.

money management and a great system always beats luck

If you think the market is a gamble you are wrong. That is not IMO. That is fact.

CANSLIM buddy!!!! Realtime following by AAII has proven it works.

NO GAMBLING REQUIRED!

I forgot to mention something....when I say I have been doing it for a living for the past six years also take into account the cost of living on Maui. This ain't Kansas, toto.
