Good morning posters, there have been some complaints about the posting on the day trading forum, so a quick reminder about some of the ground rules.
This thread isn't for us to come and to push our long term holdings, or to spam a stock code to try and drum up some interest. If the stock is relevant to the days action then by all means post it here. But just coming onto the DT thread to ramp up the stocks you are holding will quickly get you on a lot of peoples ignore lists, and you will find most will see through these kind of tactics pretty easily. Much like "the boy who cried wolf", this repetitive kind of posting will likely damage your credibility more than anything, and when you have something really worth paying attention to no one will be listening.
If for example you are calling a stock to fly up in price when it has barely moved, it's a very good idea to provide some reasoning to back that assertion up, or consider just posting in in the stock thread if it is stock that is not at all relevant to day traders. I know this is a fast moving thread where seconds matter and can be the difference between profit and loss, and we are all adults here that can use some common sense as to when it things are relevant and necessary.
Overall the majority of you do a very good job of it, so at this point it is just a friendly reminder and hopefully the only time I have to post about it.
Happy trading folks.

a few days ago sometime last week, a poster posted AEB out from nowhere and said all the rosy things about that stock. went up to as high as 2.2 and now back to 1.5. thats a prime example. i can name a number of people who claims to do hours and hours of research on "f--k all " never heard companies which all of a sudden runs because they posted it on hc....
unfortunately some are red heart posters.
