Hey RAT,
I guess we now know what you did these past few weeks with your
silence. You sat around and wrote these BABBLING BS promotion plugs,
and you are now BLITZING them in here and on other Forums. Nothing
surprises me anymore!!!
Just take a little closer look at what you are saying. All of this BS
and constant Gann dribble...one can easily understand this OBSESSION
you have with Gann and his maize of BS..... all one has to do is go out
and purchase a Gann book, NOT FROM YOU RICKY, from another reputable
book vendor like Ed Dobson at Traders Press, or from Traders Library,
or from Traders World, and then sitting down and read thru it and then
studying it. Then if one has a desire to further their Gann
investigation, they can purchase Don Hall's Pyrapoint method, or they
can purchase Don Fisher's DGL method. Both can be had for about
$200.00. Then if they want to pursue Gann even further, they can go out
and purchase some reputable software like Advanced Get, or some other
Gann style software, and then work out these Gann swing setups
themselves. There is software that easily does this, some of it is very
expensive, and the small amount of money for end of day data, is about
$1.50 per day. So why do we need to read your BS posts, about how you
became an expert Gann trader, when we have all these products and other
software and books, out there, for one to use. There is NO NEED to do
any business with you, and all one needs to do, is to see how you DUCK
and RUN and DODGE all questions, pertaining to your reputation. This is
why one needs to avoid you, at all costs, and to look elsewhere, where
there is ligitimate people, who are honest, who have software that
actually works, instead of trying to read thru your dribbling posts and
essays, trying to understand what the hell you are trying to sell and
plug this time.
Sincerely,
gerillio.
