    Can we get a list of sacrifices to see who has made the cut to this point?

    All I know is Market Raper is the only dude whose post I read in its entirety and wished for more.

    @Market Raper – http://www.ibankcoin.com/peanut_gallery/index.php/2009/04/12/prepare-to-be-raped/

    “In all likelihood, I am the oldest man on this website, with vast experience in the field of finance all stemming back to my days as a floor runner on the exchange. Through wit, grit and little criminality, I moved up the financial food chain and now spend my spare time buying or selling blocks of stock, in between safaris in Africa or adventures in the North Pole. ”

    show me someone who knows how to make money consistently and I’ll read their blog every day.

    be it fundamentals, technicals, system, swing trade, day trade, or vix trading.. learning to make money is all that matters, period.

    who the F is market raper anyways? I don’t really recall seeing him post here. Odd that someone who’s never written and rarely (if ever) posts comments would all the sudden be gung ho about writing a new blog.

    Also: The Fly comments incessantly on the idiocy of his readers. Why would he then leave us to “vote” for his next employee?

    Fly,
    Respectfully disagree with your hotshittedness:

    If you want to degenerate the blog into a mere Entertainment vehicle, as per the red nosed bozos at CNBC, hire a fiction hack to write vapid prose, show lots of tit pics and someone to titilate ala Steven King or Schumpetere. (“And then he moved his hand up her creamy thigh and caressed her moist velvety vortex.” Ugh.)

    Like Hammy,I would like the new blogger to help me bank coin and not waste my time with inanities. Lets talk STRATEGIES like Ripe Trade.

    The foolish masses will vote for Entertainment every time (cf. CNBC ratings)and so I ask that you intercede and take this decision into your own hands. Save us from Ourselves. We have met the enemy and He is Us- Pogo

    Hey Ott,

    That would have been a better pic if I’d taken it.

    But I went down to the Farmer’s Market at the Ferry Building on Saturday and there was a really sad little protest, maybe 30 people, outside the Fed on Market St.

    There were about a dozen of SF’s finest keeping an eye on things, but they might as well have been watching a baby napping. Zzzzzzzz. Saturday overtime on a beautiful day.

    BTW, had breakfast at the new Perry’s down there next to Chaya; spotted former Deputy Nat’l Security Advisor Richard Clark seated on the patio, so I knew we were unlikely to be blowed up.

    Ott, you gots to get off the Peninsula and up into SF on Saturdays.

    I voted to kill the raper. Yea, raper is going to get the guillotine.

    hey this is fun. This is what America’s and now Australia’s top model show looks like when they’re dumping someone. I see it at times when my teenager daughter is watching that stupid show.

    I reckon these shows should eventually lead to death. If a person gets booted off a reality show they should be given a lethal injection. Now that would make these shows interesting.

    If that’s little 2 rich for you. I says he gets the fucking bullet and sudden death. Fuck the idiot. I couldn’t imagine the prick on this site.

    He’s worse that the Dog.

    this is the little punk that trades for 3 months and then tells us he’s the best trader in the world and starts boasting about his rich dead.

    Fuck him, he’s dead.

    I voted for Mr. Roeper, mean Market Raper, just because of his name. Didn’t even read the post. Didn’t need to, it’s a branding issue. Brand self selection, if you will.

    Japan Producer Prices Fall at Fastest Pace Since 2002

    Japan’s more fucked than fucked.

    Sell Yen against Aussie or scoop up dollar yen on dips.

    The yen eventually makes it way to 130-150 over the next few years or its stock market falls to zero.

    The actual trade is to be long Aussie Yen even though the Aussie is a fucked up currency. However the Aussie will go up as a result of increasing levels of global liquidity. You need to trade it or if you’re just positioning make sure you can absorb big corrections. However this cross is heading much higher.

    I actually think the Aussie could end up going higher against the US dollar for a little while as global liquidity recovers and the Aussie is a terrific liquidity marker. So if the Aussie makes its way back to 90 cents at the US/Yen rate heads to 120 say you have a nice little double side cross earner.

    Looks like The White House got my fax Friday night on using the SEALS.

    Those Somalian spooks got their heads blown off.

    That will take us higher tomorrow.

    As far as this iBC ass-kicking, it’s a tough call.

    Market Raper…what do you do to piss everyone off so much?

    The FLY means business, no doubt.
