I am amazed at the amount of valuable information here. I'm new in the trading scene, and so the basics proved to be great!

Using some of the maths listed on the site (and some of my own), I've been able to work out a way to earn 30-60%+ return with most companies...and this is just from historic data too!

Thanks again, I will certainly refer this site to others.

As I mentioned before, all of the information can be worked out by using the information on this site :-)

Hint: Trading secret's + Dow theory (bear and bull trends) really helped.

Hi Hibikijoji,

Hind sight, paper trading and a bull market can really show you how to make a fortune.

Then there is the real world!!!

All jokes aside, welcome and may all your trades be successful ones. It is more fun that way. Even if you lose money from a trade, you can turn it into a winning trade by learning from it. Just call it tuition fees!

Cheers
Ann

Hello:
The charts and indicators are excellent. For a greater appreciation of these indicators and MAs, I would like to see actual numbers appear as the cross hairs move. Thank you. Please see the example below:
MA10 = 34.97 %K = 34.97 %D = 26 V = 3,500 +DI:12
-DI:40 ADX:48 %R =45 RSI = 22

Moss,
Thanks for the suggestion. Our development plans include adding current indicator values to the legend. I will ask them whether this can be dynamic (change with the crosshairs).

Dear Colin,

Regarding your worries about Arthur Gibson, is there any way you can inform new members of the huge variety of colourful personalities we have on the forum and include a trader's "health warning"?

Kate

Kate, seconded.

Colin, perhaps this could be a condition of joining the forum - ie "be aware that people express opinions which are theirs entirely - you should always do you own research".

I understand your concern for the inexperienced, but from my perspective, and though I am mostly quietly enjoying it all in the background, people should understand and accept the diverse personalities who are part of this forum.

Though I can't relate in any way to Arthur G's way of pushing the button at his broker website (gosh, I wish I was in his position!), I do appreciate his "letting it all hang out" so to speak - see, I have those same swings from "hey it's going up" to "hey it's going down" at my miniscule level and it's comforting to know a bigger player suffers the same.

Regards,
Elisabeth

Colin,

Have you heard of the three strikes rule? Instead of a straight ban imposition, how about something like this:

1) first warning - sin bin 3 days;

2) 2nd warning - sin bin 1 week;

3) 3rd warning - 3 strikes - it's a red card - out!


I think for some one new as AG, he should be given some leeway for his "foul".


Cheers.

your holiness HC

Mucking things up again!

On the third strike the player is "out".
There are no penalties for the first two "strikes".

Umpires and referees in some sports carry three cards:
The green card (circular) is a warning, without penalty.
The yellow card (square) is a warning AND a penalty (time out of play) but a return to play is allowed.
The red card (triangular) is immediate suspension from play for the remainder of the game, and mandatory reporting for further action.
The 3 cards can be given in any order, depending on the nature of the offence.
Some sports have automatic escalations, for example a second yellow card can mean immediate suspension, although the offence would not of itself have rated a red card.
Perhaps what this forum needs AFTER an immediate penalty of suspension is an agreed period of time for the 5 moderators to reach consensus on the poster's fate. I recall ANN and dug (aka jr and citizen) being hung out to dry for yonks before promising to tow the party line, or whatever they agreed, before returning to the fold.
Others have connived re-entry below the radar and remained (or still are) undetected - such being the marvels of technology.
I don't know what the 5 chosen moderators are doing about Mr Gibson - maybe nothing, maybe a lot.
I don't know what Mr Gibson knows about the duration of his suspension, or how or if it will be resolved - are there "rules" of disengagement?

Having read Colin's thoughts on a range of worldly topics, such as about Aung San Suu Kyi, Zimbabwe, Guantanamo detainees I thought he may have had a less restrictive view on what constitutes a danger to others.
Am I wrong?

Rederob,

This is my last response.

You are unnecessarily complicating the issue, close to being petty. If you want result, KISS will achieve it. It's bad form to relate Colin's world view to the need of running a biz/forum such as this. If I were to put you in his position, I have a feeling you will come out lesser. Pragmatism is not your forte I can see. Hope this is not too "personal".

Have a good day.

What did the big punter AG do anyway.

Surely noone took seriously his waffle.
(apart from recruiting a following like the Pied Piper)

Why don't you get back to the resources where you belong Redernob and stop talking all this crap.
Or at least have a look at Sally Malley and tell me why i should be buying now ?

HC's rules sound OK except the suspensions are too short to mean much to so many for so few a moment in time.
1 week,1 month,and 1 season, then start over OK.

And bring back Ann,Old Wombat,and Dogalog (yeh, i know) and anyone who can talk about shares and markets and strategies for making a dollar!


PS Why is everything BLUE now ? (seriously)
I hate BLUE writing.

Ms Parks
I will always be in your corner if you ever get into trouble.
I hope that is a good thing.
I value you personally and your contributions greatly.
You want a few of the others resurrected, and they will tell you that I fought for them too - alas not well enough it seems.
I am sorry I have not devoted enough time to commodities. I play catch up on weekends and really have not had the time during the week to be as informed as I need to in order to meaningfully post.
Don't buy Sally Malay yet - nickel is likely to drop to $10,000 per tonne (which is what SMY BFS was originally based on) so a cheaper price is possible. A good stock out of favour will reward the cunning when the tide turns.

Forum Advisory Panel Suggestion [FAPs]

Be aware that the time delay button is mal-functioning.
No doubt due to Col'n'Rob's workload and dare i say interest factor? Posts are being delayed in excess of Six{6}hours.
Obvirusly it's me,jr,this delay button was partially implemented for or should that be against?
regardless it is also 'catching' new posters as well.

Maywell it be that rampers,ad blitzers and similar low-lifes are being 'excluded'/controlled by the Delay Button.BUT i reckon,it's doing d'Job on fresh blood,nay may i say,fresh
FRESH IDEAS are being discouraged and should not be Delayed.New Posters should be taken at Face Value and i urge the FAB[forum advisory bored]to at least get this Restriction lifted as Soon as Possible.
You can keep it for me,if you Must.I can write timeless so it won't matter When it gets around to being posted but you have to get beyond to Whither the Time Delay Effect
for the wider number of posters you frankly are obviously in need of.

JMV.

Point taken Dug

The time delay can be a frustrating device, but there is no way to predict who joins to ramp and generally disrupt. It was introduced by the moderator to assist in maintaining the intent of the forum, according to the rules published at the time.

The moderator has more to do with his time than act as the "thought police" all day and night. The aim is to constantly strive for improvement, and the time-delay mechanism is regularly reviewed.

Any alternative suggestion to current arrangements would be considered.

Re your final sentence: but you have to get beyond to Whither the Time Delay Effect for the wider number of posters you frankly are obviously in need of.

I am surprised by that. Your ability to discuss trading issues with quality, insight and a demonstrated passion for the industry, is clear to all who follow your work.

Would you rather :

A) Discuss issues with sincere, motivated folk, who post to teach and to learn, or ...

B) Spend your time scanning through 400 posts per day, trying to find one item to intelligently dissect.

I would have thought that you might have expressed it this way : for the wider quality of posters you seek to attract.

It is the quality of discussion that elevates any forum, not the numbers.

Ingot 54,greetings.
The time delay is catching the baby as well as draining the bath water.It discriminates against new posters,minimises writers and maximises readers.
Think about it as a new poster may.Say they've done 3 posts of non ramping,they just want to join in.What does the Delay Butt do to them?
Takes away Immediciacy.They may be posting to the topic but by the time their post hits 3/6 hours later,it can be off topic or the point already covered,established posters to that thread may have left the building and you have to see that knowing they are subject to time delay they don't bother joining in.They leave,give up before their 10posts or their full acceptance to instant rapport.

In the 70's Tax Office there was a guidance directive=
"The taxpayer is basically honest".This was to counter any tendency for Assessors to abuse their power on 'Witch Hunts',using fine points to belt/standover d'Office 'clients'.

So to finish up.I'd prefer 40 posts a day across the Range compared to 5 learned,educational ones.It would give me some inklings of the 'Crowd Mentality'.What are THEY thinking,what motivations trigger their Call to buy/sell a particular share.
I'd much rather Glimpses like that than learned 'Papers' on the finer moves,requirements of a Day Trader?Whotcha figure Ivan?about 60% of your Learned 'Worthwhile'posts have been that [til Holy Cow returned,at least]

Frankly.Day trading IMHO is justifiably an extremely minority interest.Do you know Ivan that Colin once policed and pounced on Day Trade 'Boosting'yet now it's bandied about the Forum as some ultimate fullfilment of d'Trading Life.

Anyway,got things to do.Just a POV[point of view]

... this is not referring to anyone, but the "panel" as a whole.

The time delayed "punishment" dishing out on Dig has gone on long enough, I think it warrants a reconsideration. So far I see Dug's conduct has been exemplary. Is it not our society's value that we believe in rehabilitation, giving people a second or third chance for betterment? I can't see why this forum's has to deviate from that - unless you don't believe in such values (and more, if you were to go through some of your "world view" and values that some of you have been espousing).

I can see the need for disciplinary action, but equally there should be some kind of acknowledgement for people who have shown genuine improvement. I am sure most people believe positive encouragement always works better than negative discouragement here, and I am sure the 'panel' is wise enough to see this, right?

HC, Dug

If someone is given a warning then they are placed back in the queue for a few weeks to monitor their posts. No-one is left in the queue indefinitely as a form of punishment.

We would like to reduce the number of new posters in the queue -- Dug has a point -- it does act as a disincentive. In the next few weeks we will contact a number of new members to request that they update their forum profile.

Regards
Colin

Ingot and Colin , I still don't think this forum needed improvement. And Dug I'm pleased you have voiced your opinion.

Don't fix what isn't wrong

Be kind to your neighbours

Strive to be a better person

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you

Translation, If they aren't hurting you, do not hurt them!

Teach if you can freely, and tolerate those that think they know.

Pass your cup to the first person you meet that you perceive as thirsty, because they probably are.

What you give will come back to you Ten Fold!!!




It takes all kinds to run a world and all kinds to form a family and this forum was my family.

I guess most will learn to survive without a community, and your forum shall prosper Colin on enlightenment alone.


Brave heart , Trying to never speak again!

Hi Julles - very nice to cross paths with you again.

Thanks for speaking up on this topic - I know with you it always comes from the heart.

Dug has indeed uncovered an area where improvement might be introduced. And that is the very reason why I take a slightly different view from yours. Ongoing improvement.

I agree - IC forum is probably the best one I have seen - not that I go searching - I am obviously happy here - I learn, and folks do me the courtesy to listen, and reply.

It's good.

The forum DID need improvement. There are always wider issues than we realise. ASIC is taking a very strong interest in any forums regarding the buying and selling of equities, real estate, brokerage, insurance, legal gambling (sports betting, lotto etc).

Where a member, whether financial or not, is allowed to post material which might be seen as an inducement to part with money, make misleading judgements, predictions, or unfounded promises, that material must either be qualified (by disclaimer as to the credentials and licencing of the person posting) or it must be challenged, and substantiated or dismissed.

The moderator has an absolute legal nightmare to contend with at times. The rights of posters can no longer be the over-riding principle of maintaining a forum which goes up on the public record. Posters are now being asked to assist the moderator, by self-regulating what is posted.

Because we now live in a quite different world than, say 5 years ago, changes are not coming easily. It transpires that not all folks care as deeply as you or I do, that this forum survives. Some just want to grow an ego, or disrupt, ramp, mislead etc. You've seen all that.

Ego is ok - I have a pretty big ego too, you know.

I looked at all your points. As a general response, can I appeal to your sense of doing unto others ...?

This forum is run first of all as a business, and the owner of it has a family who depend on him to provide security for them, just as in any business/family situation.

If the forum is removed from the net, where is that business?

I have never spoken to Colin Twiggs, either in person, nor by phone. And he might prefer that I did not respond in this way, or mention his circumstances.

Julles, I have seen you take some hits on this forum, and I did not think that was fair. Dug too has taken hits, been ignored etc, but he keeps putting in the hard yards.

What is evolving here is simply an attempt to change that.

Members always have opportunity to make suggestions about the rules - the rules we have are those which evolved after much input from Panel Advisors, over weeks of work.

The current Advisory Panel will soon begin to rotate, so that other IC members can take their places, and have insight into just how seriously the Freedom of Speech issue is taken, and protected. The Panel is a bit like a court hearing - and believe me, the decisions are NEVER unanimous. All of us do change our minds at times too - and the best result is taken.

Talking out of school here.

I'd like to think I am working hard for the good of the forum, for you, Dug, Colin, everyone.

I am a bit too idealistic, but guess what - I know there is room for that here too. I usually see things in black and white, but thanks to my involvement here, I am learning to broaden it out a bit.

You said : It takes all kinds to run a world and all kinds to form a family and this forum was my family.

Now that the boundaries have been better defined and strengthened, I hope you could feel that the forum still IS like a family for you Julles.

Can one thing Ingot said be confirmed?
I was under an impression that the MODERATOR[ie Colin]could not make stock 'tips'{buy/sell this because i reckon that is going to happen.}
Moderator share chat is what ASIC is on the prowl for.Probably because a Moderator is trusted more than the usual poster etc.etc.
So is it that NO ONE can make share tips? Surely not.

Now I completely agree that a GOOD forum should be interested mainly in Technique.Methods that anyone can get a grip on and use to select shares without 'backup' by the 'originator'
and certainly no poster should be so ego driven that all should assume they are experts and that they are to be accepted 'No questions asked' and on a No Technique given basis because they don't want 'peasants' to know their 'secrets',all that I AM the GREATEST mularky,I talk only to the Best and leave the Rest jive.
Oh a poster can come that line,it's amusing but they should not expect to hide behind 'Respect' clauses if and when they trigger a negative response.

So I drift off topic,I free the stalking/hobby horse,can you just define what are the parameters of/for Stock Tipping Legal or at least ASIC approved?
regards,
jr

In short our aim is to improve the quality of the discussion, while retaining a caring attitude towards others.

As for listing ......... not something we would consider.

Dug,

The Policy Statement ED can be downloaded at http://www.asic.gov.au/asic/asic.nsf/lkuppdf/ASIC+PDFW?opendocument&key=ps162_pd f

Guidelines affecting posters are:

An IDS must display prominent warnings to people making postings on the IDS. The warnings should also be accessible to people who view the postings. They must set out clear messages that:
(a) you are personally responsible for your postings (including any alterations you make to postings). Therefore, you should not include any misleading or deceptive information in your postings and not carry out illegal or unauthorised activities using the IDS. Information in postings may, where appropriate, be made available to ASIC. ASIC and people acting on such information may take action against you;
(b) if you include hyper-links to other sites, you may be seen as endorsing the material on such sites. It may be advisable for you to warn people accessing other sites that you do not endorse or take responsibility for material in the hyper-linked sites;
(c) if you own or have some other interest in a security, or you have any connection with a securities issuer that you might benefit from, you must disclose that fact. For example, you may be entitled to receive direct or indirect commissions, fees or other benefits from a financial product or service provider; or you may be associated with a particular securities issuer such as by being an employee or director of a securities issuer. If so, you must disclose that fact in your posting; and
(d) if the IDS operator finds or reasonably suspects that you are making illegal or unauthorised postings, your right to make postings will be withdrawn.

Guidelines affecting readers are:

An IDS must display prominent warnings to people before they access postings on the IDS. To meet this requirement, an IDS must allow people to access postings only after viewing, or being clearly asked to look at, the required warnings. There must also be clear warnings to the following effect:
(a) the IDS operator does not endorse or vouch for the accuracy or authenticity of postings;
(b) no one is permitted to make postings as a licensed investment adviser, or as a representative of a licensed adviser;
(c) postings are at best general information, not professional investment advice prepared by taking into account any individual circumstances and needs of particular investors. Therefore, before acting on the basis of what is said in a posting, you should:
(i) consider consulting a licensed adviser (ASIC’s website at www.asic.gov.au has a list of licensed advisers); and
(ii) visit ASIC’s consumer website at www.watchdog.asic.gov.au for general guidance about investing;
(d) people making postings are individually responsible for the accuracy and authenticity of their postings;
(e) because of the nature of the internet, it may be hard to identify or locate the person making a posting. The person may also be in an overseas jurisdiction, so it may be hard to take any legal action against them;
(f) you will have no access to ASIC-approved dispute resolution schemes to recover any losses you may suffer by relying on the postings;
(g) securities cannot be offered to you for sale or issue through postings on the IDS; and
(h) it is advisable that you alert the IDS operator or ASIC Infoline on 1300 300 630 if you have good reason to suspect that any postings are inaccurate, are based on inside information or are likely to mislead or deceive people who view or use the postings.

There is no mention of poor spelling

Regards,
Colin

Dug,
We could sum it up as the 4 commandments:

Don't tip stocks or tell others what to buy or sell.
Don't post false or misleading information.
Just set out your analysis and your conclusion.
Disclose if you are long or short.

Regards
Colin

Hello Colin & the advisory panel,

I am formally requesting that Dug be reinstated to full membership with no delay to posting.

Forgive me if I remember wrong - I'm an old girl..... but I remember a post where Colin said Dug should post charts, and Dug responded something similar to "you want charts, I'll do charts". And we have had dozens - hundreds? of charts from Dug since then.

I really enjoy Dug's way of looking at charts, just like I enjoy Spider's huge TA knowledge & experience in his commentary on his charts, Stickman's clarity in presenting his price picture, and Holy Cow's "heart on his sleeve" attitude in the notes on his charts. There are so many others in this forum who have equally valid perspectives - how valuable is it to us all to have all these diverse ideas to consider.

Please consider my request to reinstate Dug.

Regards,
Elisabeth

Hey all,

Don't know if this is the right place, but the topic name seems right. This be my first post, so before I head into askin for help and opinions I thought I'd drop a line here.

I've been prowling here for a month, with much to learn and nothing to add, while getting my head around the free IC demo (first charting software ive used). I think now I'm ready to dive in.

This is just a big thank you to Colin and Robin. Love the software (so much so I just signed for a year), and especially love the forum. You're doin a great job, lots of wise folk on here, and so so much to learn.

Oh and the website is invaluable in looking up just what the hell everyone is talking about, great resource to catch slang without having to ask a hundred stupid questions.

Cheers guys,
Mush preciated,
Monkee

ummmmm also how do I post charts? Do I have to use some image dump site to get them on the web, then html code them in?

monkee,

Thanks Colin,

First chart posted, I hope with no worries.

Thanks very much for the welcome spider, I have already learnt alot from your posts, (though to be honest some go a little over my head, but they're always good to point in a direction to research). I look forward to chatting with you in the future.

Now I'm back to it.

Thanks again,
Monkee
