I have what is intended to be a "helpful" hint to any of you who, like Bill,
want to vend your wares on Realtraders, but avoid doing so because you also
want to remain part of our happy little list.

When you post something to the list which you hope will "lure" prospects to
your web site, and thence perhaps become paying customers, give us a "taste"
of what it is you want to sell.  You have to give this away for free,
because this then becomes a "sample" of the bigger, better, and assumedly
more expensive product that you want to sell us.

In order for your sales pitch to be effective, and sufficiently subtle to
get past the list police, you will have to tout the effectiveness of what it
is you are selling, without disparaging any of the other approaches which
many of us may be using, however clumsily.  In each message [recently}, Bill
has given us a combo of the Doji Sandwich (his technique, which is
interesting to some of us) as well as wagging an increasingly irritating
finger at those of us who position trade.  Incidentally Bill, if you have
such distaste for position trading, my suggestion would be to simply not
mention it, choosing instead to describe (as you have occasionally done in
the past) how one or two of your techniques might work better in some sample
situation.

Many contributors on this list come to mind... those most valued are those
who selflessly (and apparently absent promotion) parcel out information on
an occasional (sometimes frequent) basis for the advantage of any of us
willing to consider it.  Those are the contributions which are interesting
enough to make me consider perhaps buying something more.  I would venture
the speculation that very few of these "regular contributors" are large
scale traders.  And if they are, more to their credit for sharing some of
what they know.

Don't worry... we won't rob you of any trade secrets.  Who knows... you just
might persuade some of us that day-trading is really a better way!
