    Even if so - shows shockenly bad judgement and lack of honest too, trade might be fake but it has real effect on his reputation.

      I'd trust him before I would trust you. That's not a recommendation for him, it's a reflection on you.

        No old chap, your statement is a reflection on you.

        Now, are you gonna bark all day, little doggie, or are you gonna bite?

            You beat me to it.

            In his mind, though, being ridiculed and laughed at here just reaffirms his belief that he's right.

            He's got it in to his head that being a die hard contrarian, and going against the majority, is a winning formula.

            However, if that was true, long term buy and hold would be a losing strategy, which it clearly isn't.

              If Scooter had bought lloyds when he tipped it, he would have made 10% selling it now.

              Obviously still waiting for that higher-low.

              The problem with allegedly only making 4-6 trades a year is you are PUTting all your eggs in a very few baskets.

              When it goes wrong.. it goes bad.

                10% will seem like small potatoes in the long run. I've learnt my lesson not following the strategy to a T. Trading every other week would be nerve racking (is that right? doesn't look it).

                Eggs are split across four things are the minute:

                stocks
                crypto
                A dying Put
                cash

                If I were going to look at other markets I think it would be farmland or commodities.

                  Lloyds up now 17% since call - Yet there is no evidence to support the bottom was in.

                  This is the emotion part that is super difficult. TA is not easy.
