Jimmymac,
allow me a moment to explain and to “soften” what you “believe” is said.
if you had read some of my other posts, you would understand I come out of a lifetime in show business — my first reaction to ANYTHING is to laugh (sometimes at its sadness and sometimes at its fun)
I respect “most” points of view (unless i see them to be dangerous to, or trying to get money from, newbs !) and Tess’s is no different, and certainly one of the more experienced and worthwhile ones.
I FREELY admit i am NOT a team player — i dislike “conversation” concerning where a price is going as i have over a long period of time completely proven i already KNOW !
this does NOT fill me with self conceit or puffery — I am VERY aware of my OWN foibles and actions and fully understand that close to 50% of the readers enjoy my “fun” and 50% probably hate me for it, including my signature !
my tongue in cheek statement concerning Tess + Co (ive seen it referred to constantly as “Co” by those who are PRAISING it.) was JUST that — after 340 pips in 2 hours, a few of us here were sorta happy and having some fun ---- THAT is all ! (although the thought of a real contest IS interesting — sorta “indicators vs price action”)
Tyman and I seem destined for greatness, although it would be best if he and I keep our distances — we are two VERY OPPOSITE PEOPLE and a lot of flame and smoke comes around when we are near.
do i have an EGO — well, we all do, and mine is pretty healthy (anyway the doctors in the mental hospital told me so !) BUT many many many completely confuse my fun with something else which might be very true, were it not for my being RIGHT BRAINED and an artist !
PLEASE understand, i come on STRONGLY and many people are challenged by that — over a VERY long time of running a few businesses, ive found MORE like me than HATE me BUT NO ONE FORGETS ME, and in show business, as life, THAT is a pretty good tombstone !
Try to understand jimmymac, i hold NO dislike for Tess or pretty much anyone else — i stopped by that thread, saw there was nothing there for me and nothing i could do for you, and so left, leaving an honest reason for doing so.
the two things you must ALWAYS remember about me that makes me different from many here is <I am RIGHT brained, I am pure show business and look at everything as an artist and I insist on having fun with those around me !"
other than that, im pretty much like any other lapdog or poodle – love to be scratched behind the ears, fed sweetbreads and champagne and sit on a pretty womans lap !
TRY to understand jimmymac — WHAT most see about me is simply NOT there, but left brained people dont easily understand me, and a lot simply hate my outlandish behavior !
enjoy and trade well
