I understand your position. I teach as do
some others on this list. I don't post charts because my system is
proprietary. I do post some of the results of the system from time to time
when I feel that it might help someone look at a situation in a little different
manner. If some of Bens rules were implemented I could not post, because
I wouldn't post a chart.
I don't sell software, books or anything else that
pertains to trading. I appreciate the no spam policy as I get enough
unwanted e-mail without the spam.
I would like to see you continue to post. I
don't use your information, but it does stimulate my mind and causes me to look
at things that I might not seek out on my own. There is something to be
learned every day. Even from the myriad of stock hustlers that send those
beautiful pamphlets in the mail. When I get 10 Pamphlets touting penny
gold stocks I start to look for a short in gold. So there might be some
benefit even from spammers who use snail mail .
Have a good week all. Ira.

Subject: Re: [RT] Re: Advertising
Earl and other RT members:
In no way did I intend to
start or contribute to this vast amount of bandwidth discussing this
non-trading issue.
The ONLY forum I posted the announcement to, other
than my own, was RT, because I have been a member since the very beginning
and a handful of people had recently privately emailed me asking me what
the heck happened to me. In no way did I intend what I posted to be spam
or solicitation of any product or firm.
I am saddened that I have
now been labeled a "spammer" on this list. That being said, I understand
Bob's concern for having control of a forum that he runs, and I know how
difficult it is to "put the genie back in the bottle," so I defer to his
judgement. I thought I had done a good job "cleansing the message I posted
and apparently, I was wrong. If I offended any of you, you have my sincere
apologies.
Because of the business involvements that fill my days [and
generally, half my nights] it is very difficult to discuss trading in any
sense without touching on some concept, site or product I use in my
business activities, so the filtering has become near impossible for
me--maybe it's easy for others. I'm just being blatantly
honest.
Often, when I want to chime in, I hold off because I can't post
a chart on a specific piece of software, etc. So rather than cross what
may be the "line," I just stand back and watch. Honestly, I think myself
and many others are in the same boat and would contribute, but do not or
cannot, because we don't want to cross the line but are so entwined with
what we use that to post without showing what we use would be pointless
and, truthfully, take 250 percent longer to post, with less
content.
But, the important thing, one more time.: After ready Earl's
post, it strikes me that my judgement was apparently incorrect. I
apologize for the post. I hope you all go back to discussing trading under
the rules your moderator sets for you.
Best,
Tim
