Guy, you keep getting banned. Maybe that's a hint you are not wanted?

When all you have going for you is self promotion, you have to try to be persistent I guess.

garyjohn aka marketsurfer's posts were removed.

I doubt that's marketsurfer considering he uses charts and has often posted his price action only (TA) thoughts.

Quote from greencapital:

1) Totally wrong and bordering on ignorance.

2) Show me the horrendous disproven---

3) since if you can, why can't you corner the market? ra ra ra

1) Really? There's nothing ignorant about not clinging to an outdated and disfunctional conceptual-framework.

2) Hurst Exponent (KAOS on Bloomberg) EMH, if it were real, would show it flatlining, more or less

3) Corner the market? Well, the only thing stopping me is the fact that I'm not a trillionaire. Come to think of it, that's the only thing stopping anyone.

Exactly, first there needs to be a market that can be cornered. Next, you need to have the funds and market collaboration from other key participants to corner the market.

Great example is the billionaire HUNTS in their quest to corner the Silver markets. They almost did it after creating a silver shortage by sending/hiding large quantities of it in Switzerland instead of keeping it in the U.S.

I remember clearly the Gold and Silver markets back then when I was a kid as if it was today because my old man (a floor trader at the time) would often talk about it with his trading pals he invited over for dinner.

So true, and the only thing that stopped them was margin requirement changes for the metals contracts and the Fed. The Hunt's were made an example of by the regulators. It can be done.

Nah, this is a picture of a David Goodboy rah rah session for the hedge funds he promotes. The poor people are singing a 600 foot contract of disclaimers and fine print explaining why his funds can't consistently make money from their investments.

My past courses were never PC free.

Quote from 20angrygurus:

Stop posting these outright lies.

Last I checked, Surfer fund(s) was up over 50% last year on a 15 million dollar investment--- seems like a nice payday for Mr. Surf.

Not sure of the returns in 2010, yet.

Surf doesn't have a fund he has a dog and pony (phony) show promoting a fund.
Fifteen million is all you could drum up? What a loser.
Post some verifiable statements for those numbers.
Oh you can't . . .
You have a fund and don't know what the year to date numbers are . . . . what a troll..



I'm as much of a stealth vendor as you are a pedophile Davey Goodboy.
