It's difficult to defend yourself when you've been banned. I have no case to plead; simply would like the opportunity to clear the air via my "highfreq" alias.
My initial post to the "RealForexTrades" journal was not out of line, IMO. I found it profoundly ironic that a vendor would coin a phrase, only to use an incorrect affix; in this case the author incorrrectly attributes "transequential" when the prefix is "trans" and the root is "sequential" or the correct, albeit manufactured, TRANSSEQUENTIAL.
"RealForexTrades" went off on a tangent, only to introduce more absurd, manufactured terms as if to equate jibberish with theory. If calling his thread a UPN sitcom is out of line, then so be it. I was being diplomatic, the journal would be hilarious if not for the pathos.
I made an analogy to "RFT" being a transsexual to make an analogy to the improper use of TRANS... probably not the most diplomatic, but worthy of the journal in which it was posted. FWIW, this "realforextrades" guy has been spamming some system under the pseudonyms, "tradevector" "scoresomepips" " turbinetrader" and others. It's on the trade2win.com board.
Regarding my public comments to Magna: I admit that the "C" word was totally unacceptable, no excuse for that behavior. I took offense to a comment he made via PM, but it's no excuse. I do, however, feel that posting a PM publicly is also a violation of ET regs.
FWIW, I don't recall ever complaining about a post personally directed at me. I don't expect nor do I especially care to be reinstated... good luck to all and thanks for the kind words.
Best,
