Omega Man:
When the day comes that I am trading your personal capital, then you can tell me
what to do. This is a forum first and foremost about trading using Omega
products. Omega is threatening to actually release what they claim might be a
new product with significant improvements. We are finally getting glimpses of
this product from, apparently, a few beta users. And so far, we haven't heard
yet from a beta user that is refuting the fairly negative reviews.
Again, I challenge you or anyone else out there. IF you have the new TS 5.0 and
you care to go on the record to give us your impression of the product and
refute the claims made about its performance, then please do so. Otherwise, this
is a forum that usually practices free speech. So if you don't like what's been
posted, hit the delete button...
Or, even better...if you can't come up with a first hand review of the product,
take some time and write a useful post that shares some trading technique with
the other traders here. Otherwise, you are just wasting our bandwidth.
Basically, you stand behind some fake name that you think is real cool and take
pot shots at other people. Again, add something interesting or go slink back to
the corner and hide with the rest of the crumbs.
Best,
Tim Morge
