2020, Can you offer us an improvement on Jacks message?..
Wayne, probably, but you'll have to send the $1000 deposit for my lecture notes to Box 2020 GPO in your capital city. ;) Anyway I figured Sir Burr was maybe in agreement with me rather than you - but I'll let him confirm or deny that himself.
Lol - funny how these things develop - I guess I started out trying to warn Julia not to get too excited about the video she couldn't watch. Now I'm being asked to lecture on investment tactics - ;)

But... but... but..... now that our illusions of Jack as trading messiah are shattered, we need some more cliche'd wisdom to fill in the gaps.

Being the one to have de-constucted our collective belief system, I felt for sure you would be to the one to lead us from the wilderness; a new messiah so to speak.... and now you want to charge us?

I thought disiples were for free :D

Sheesh!

LOL, Buy the book - it'll probably say something like "toss a coin - heads buy, tails hold, and if it lands on its edge then sell. BTW, "Hold" is a third option which Jack doesn't consider (from my recollection) - doesnt even mention in 1.5 hours that I can recall. If you want to know the main lesson that Ive learn in my 3 or 4 months of trading, it was probably that I should've held more often. But Ive also been lucky - sold OXR at 3.60, and recently BHP at 28.69. And I guess these were "gut feelings".

Speaking of which - which is your preferred trading position ;) Or am I the only one in the witness box?

PS Also as I said up there somewhere, My other tactic would be to read the excellent posts around here - whether or not I agree with them "Think I'd prefer to read a few share-price-predictions on this forum than go through that again."

PPS Also I would train the monkey to shoot for the commodities section ;)

he seems to say that :-

1. the monkey will do better unless the trader is uncomfortable !!.
2. a women is prbably comprabale to a monkey thrwing darts
3. I'm going to do all my trading(/investing? - for the 36,458th time) on a bed of nails from now on.
4. I'm not sure if the women also have to be uncomfortable - presumably a moderately uncomfortable woman and a seriously uncomfortable man are about equal
Wayne - I've worked it out - Make sure you train a FEMALE monkey to throw the darts!!! While standing in nettles !!! Given that the difference between success and failure is only a couple of percent - these couple of small tips (for free !!!) could make all the difference!!;)
