Well I agree with you, your system is either playing it too safe or very lazy. Tyhe trigger for a buy was Friday afternoon.

I am so conditioned to not holding an ALSI position overnight that this just seems risky. Do you use Warrents instead to limit risk?

must say i am starting to have my doubts about my perception of Simon as an unemotional trader...for me when the default position if is to simply attack or insult someone who may disagree with him thats an indication of someone not that secure of their trading...as i say just a bit of doubt creeping in...

I guess I am the only one who is still new and lack emotional attachement in the trading game. I hope I will not learn everything you guys type on your keyboards.
