Strangely, none of them ever answer that question when asked.......if you're a serious trader looking to make $$$, the idea is to identify stocks that you think will go up, and actually buy them (I realise I need a bit more material to pad that out into a bestselling book ). Why waste time posting on HC on stocks you not only don't own, but clearly have no intention of ever owning? And don't get me started on the increasing trend on HC for people to lie in their disclosure that they hold a stock, just so they can then post to raise innocent-sounding queries about what might go wrong with it.
