Hey, guys, those of you continuing to rag on RM - In continuing to run this into the ground just says something about you, not RM. We've discussed this in depth and I've explained my original question about the exit, which I also explained was, I believe misguided, and explained where it came...

Agree. They'll wait til after the elections though most likely. They need to ratchet up the anit-Iran rhetoric some more first. No ground war. Iran has a huge army. Plus look at the disaster in Iraq. Oh, wait, I forgot. Cheney says the "insurgency" is nearing an end. Oh, yeah that's right...

Was he on? What did he have to say? There used to be a site that had transcripts of these interviews, but I thrik the main media sources shut them down. Too bad - it was a really nice site. Forgot the name of it.

Here's a Business Week article on Steve Cohen from a few years ago http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/03_29/b3842001_mz001.htm

Is this true? or are you just making a joke? :) That's pretty cool if true. :)

Since I haven't viewed it yet I can't say but I probably don't necessarily agree with all they're saying and may not agree with much. :) Just interested in someone presenting that point of view. As I mentioned in one earlier post, I feel an attempt my some to demonize the hedge fund industry...

Thanks ByLoSellHi for sharing that. :) Didn't have a chance to view all of it yet. Is this from Jim DeCosta? The guy from flytiger's thread I mentioned? http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=75449&highlight=sho

Didn't say you "needed" me to agree. :) Noting personal, but it doesn't realy matter to me what you need or don't need. I'm just expressing my opinion the same as you are. Not entirely, but to me this is quite often a matter of poorly run, crappy little failing companies trying to blame their...

These are your issues though right? http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=75449&highlight=sho I don't quite see it the same way.

dafugginman, Very good post, although there may be some truth to the fact he's coming out now and making himself more publicly available because of all the scrutiny of hedge funds from the SEC and the law suits, etc. Also, many don't remember that even Warren Buffett used to be a much more...

BTW, I'm envisioning that if I set my mind to it and work at this for several years, I may be able to make up to $50 or at least $40 average in a single day. :D Signed, The Piker :D "Think Big!!!" - The Donald

BTW Dr. Ari Kiev, the psychologist mentioned in the Steve Cohen, SAC, article from the Wall Street Journal http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?threadid=76935, is one of the Market Wizards in Jack Schwager's Stock Market Wizards book. An interesting interview in which he talks about...

OneHipCat Thanks very much for sharing this article man. :) Cohen's someone most of us are very much interested in and a pretty private guy to say the least. There aren't that many recent publicly available photos of him either from what I understand. I had access to the WSJ website and...

Thanks. It was meant in that way. I appreciate your posts too. :)

One last post, even though I'm really tired (up since 5 AM as usual, trading since 6, after 4 hours sleep :) ): The thing behind my questioning the exit call I think came from my own past experiences. About 8 years ago, up til 3 years ago, I used to hang out all day in a live trading room...

On further reflection, and reading more of your posts and the appreciation thread you linked to, http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=73881&perpage=6&pagenumber=1, probably the most accurate take on your posts would be from GG who said: My questioning your exit came from...

I guess you did say you were going to exit partially on the open. Just never heard what happened with the rest. Good trading to you.

Hey man, it's nothing personal. You may be a great guy and honest as they come. Like I say I don't really know you. You can post your calls if you like or not. Like my post I just posted said, it's more about the timing. Not talking about hand holding. Something maybe others are interested in...

And some additional thoughts: Maybe you were doing a quick scalp on this and did that, but to come back to the forum you started a day later after the move goes strongly against the original call isn't maybe the greatest timing. To call this a short term bottom and "short term" turns out to be...

This will probably make you angry and cause you to lash out at me, but that's okay. Nothing personal, or maybe this is, but that doesn't sound truthful. This is your thread that you started. Why didn't you post the fact that you dumped your oil on the open yesterday? I know you said you were...
