The Faraj List of Exploding Stocks Part 3.04 (FAR3)

My concern is that posters are beginning to expect fingers to spend time on their pet shares as if it is their RIGHT. They are just beginnning to resort to "what have I done to upset you" comment (not far short of bullying?). Once this starts, it will just get more and more aggressive, particularly if / when we hit a downturn. Some posters have got all their money tied up in one or two stocks and are scared by a loss; they just want "reassurance".
I know you have often posted bearish views ... so have I and we both get insulted for our pains too on other threads. But no-one would ever be rude to you here.
I often do well by spotting a trading range - MKS 270 - 290 has been me wonders for the last two months for instance. Calls at 270, puts at 290.
Is it about making money? For me, yes. For some others, I think it is more about being right. If they buy a share, it must go up. If it goes down, it threatens their ego and intellect. Some people get so angry - the Directors are a bunch of crooks, the mm's are conmen and so on. As Jesse Livermore said, "its just the price".
