Hi. It's Tim. Yay!

Re: Throwaway Post

Tim Knight — Mon, 17 Dec 2007 17:53:14 -0000

Double yay! Although I wish they had ratings.

Re: Throwaway Post

Tim Knight — Mon, 17 Dec 2007 17:53:41 -0000

Oh! They DO have ratings.

Re: Throwaway Post

OK, Disqus has officially kicked Intense Debate's ass.

I want to add the first comment so you can test out the rating system by giving me lots of up arrows. Thanks.

Uh-Oh. I think it is rating comments (the points) instead of the contributor. That kinda sucks.

Ohhhhhhhhhh. I get it! Mouse over a person's picture. It gives you a number saying what their 'Clout' is. Hurrah!

I'm hanging on to my puts!

I took profits on RIMM last Friday, but it isn't because I think the stock couldn't fall more. I'm just being a wimp.

.......the rating system will probably be more effective than IP blocking.

Yeah, GS was up for about 3 seconds. Amazing. Poor ol' Abby.

I am closing out my PUT positions on these five securities: AGN, FLR, BEN, GES, SOHU. Nothing wrong with them. But I'm a little nervous about a bounce and want to take profits on those charts I am least excited about.

Re: Next Move?

Tim Knight — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 10:10:31 -0000

Wow. If GS can't manage to rise on such outstanding news, it's pretty pathetic. I'm thinking of buying puts on this sucker.

If it is, Howard is going to find a way to misspell it. ("I kid, I kid.")

Jake, why can't you be more like your brother? It's working a hell of a lot better than Intense Debate, that's for sure.

Oh, Lord. Is that TG? No one on this board has a rack like that, with the possible exception of beanie.

North Lake Tahoe. I've never been to Mammoth, which is more a SoCal thing.

Of course, the moment I put this post up, the market starting ticking higher :-)

Delighted to hear it! I'm going to be doing a lot more with Prophet.net in 2008; it's been idle for three years now. I'm going to change that.

Thanks for the mental imagery. See you in 12 years, erection!

I think the bulls recognize how critically important this support level is. Thus we keep ticking up. Low so far is 73.35 on the IWM. Now it's up to 73.75 again. Going below 73.00 would be the end of it for the bulls. And having this level truly hold would put the bears on hold (yet again) for a while.

Are you oversold? ;-) I think this falls into the "don't try to catch a falling knife" category.

Re: Better than Sex

Tim Knight — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 13:15:44 -0000

Depends on the stock price, but "a few bucks" is usually true. So if the stock is, let's say, at $75, I like to have an $80 put.

Well, I see the comments from the prior post are a mile long (and it's the last time I use the word 'sex' in a subject line!) I think I now know why comments were so light in the past: because TypePad's comment system sucks wind!

Yep. The best coffee in town is Coupa Cafe over on Ramona. Peets comes in second.

Delighted to hear it! Good luck!
