Yes, this predicting stuff is so silly.
Makes me think of the 1-800 hotlines. LOL! They claim to predict,
but predict nothing. This is so silly.
I can honestly say that I have NEVER
PREDICTED that I will Live or not live over night and get up or not get up in
the morning.
I can honestly say that I have NEVER
PREDICTED that I will or will not leave my house at this or that time and arrive
at the office at this or that time.
The above is so much crap and so silly, it is
like the twilite zone. :)
I couldn't even tell you the exact time I
left my house this morning or yesterday, much less predict
tomorrow.
There is nothing wrong with
predicting. Many do it. I don't.
And I can honestly say I have NEVER predicted any
of the above. That would be silly.
Kind of like predicting the next full moon.
How silly

What the hell is so bad about
predicting.
I predict all the time.
I predict I will live over the night and get up
in the morning.
I predict that I will leave the house at 7-7:15
and arrive at the office in 7-15 minutes.
I predict that I will leave the office at 3:30
+/- 15 minutes and 7-15 minutes to home.
We are always PRDICTING/ANTICIPATING -- I have
never heard
so much crap for people not willing to admit that
they do predict
what will happen when they take some
action.
Semantics, semantics, BS, BS, BS ! ! ! !

Well, I guess that would alos depend on
who you ask. :)
To me, making a bet has nothing to do
with making a prediction.
I don't bet or gamble, but lets say I was
making a bet on a basketball game. Lets say Duke was playing
Carolina.
I would bet on Duke because I honestly think
they are the better of the two, but I am deffinately not predicting that
they WILL win. They are not undefeated, and even if they were,
undefeated, I still would not come out and predict that they would win, but
if I had to bet, I would take Duke!
Kind of like playing black jack or
anything. You play, you bet, but of course you don't predict you are
going to win. That would be silly.
But, don't get me wrong. You can predict
and some do predict. I don't predict!
Maybe an intelligent guess,
sometimes. :)

Here's one
related to this issue:
Is making a
BET the same as making a PREDICTION ?

Another point about your
email.
You seem to be talking about the
10%-20% who make make some money. How about the 80%-90% that
lose?
Are they predicting and are just
wrong?
Maybe that is one of my main
points.
YES, you can predict! But, most
of the time it is wrong.
But, now back to me. I don't
predict. And why you, say that I can and do predict is beyond
logic.
I don't even know what happened in most
markets yesterday. Why in the world you think I can predict the
future, is silly.
So, YES, I fail to see the
obvious!
Also remember, if you see the nose on your
face, you are spending too much time in front of a mirrow.

Re: [RT] nasdaq and sp500 topTo some people
maybe. But, I use indicators etc. and predict nothing.
Ifmy indicators show buy. I buy. Nothing to do with
me predicting anythingat all. And that is good. My
opinions and predictions are usually not toogood. In other
words I would be wrong to often. I like to use charts
andlet my indicators etc. do the work. I leave the
predictions to the psycics.As far as taking trades. I am
predicting nothing. What would make youthink I could or
would predict anything?I take the signals, use stops and don't
worry about it.Kind of like any bussiness, games or anything in
life. We can't predict ifwe will win, but we can prepare
and do our best and hope things work out.Yes, I know Broadway
Joe predicted the jets win over the colts. Somethings
can't be explained! :) But, most teams prepare and hope
for thebest, but can't predict the out come. If i
would have tried, I would have probably predicted the last 5 tops
inthe stock market that didn't happen. LOL!Many others
have done this many, many times.I guess some try to
predict? I don't predict anything!----- Original
