You're jumping the gun a bit

Posted by: Checked Out (a.k.a ZnLProd) on May 08, 14:29 in response to islander's post once you allow one to post a call to action, you allow...

No - I'm not OK at all with cheating, you're making an unreasonable assumption. Saying that someone should be allowed to post whatever they want is not the same as condoning cheating.

I've been playing here for a long while too and trading on fundamentals as well. I can respect that regular board hounds don't want forum boards cluttered with crap and hype, that makes sense to me.

It's just that expressing an opinion is not always the same as a 'call to action' to force illicit price maniuplation. Just because I say/think a stock is under or over-valued doesn't mean a) I'm right, b) I'm worth listening to, c) I'm trying to sway 'group-think'. I might just be... ya know... expressing an opinion. It's a free country and all that.

However, I can see the gods are against me though, so I'll just concede and not push this issue any further.

 

ok, new question. Where can one go to find or create call to actions??? something tells me this lopreste May 08, 10:33

in one's own mind seems to be safest! {nm} DASavage May 08, 10:35

I think the point is to disallow calls to action, to prevent market manipulation. elchan May 08, 10:38

That would be Broadway and Wall St, ever since the Buttonwood Agreement in 1792 :). {nm} fred_ott May 08, 10:38

But you can't really manipulate the market - box office receipts come in and the price adjusts. Who cares what you post? Checked Out May 08, 10:41

Sheep follow sheep and wolves that mix in can make an H$ or two. {nm} Catzan May 08, 10:47

Exactly!!! lopreste May 08, 10:48

From your posts on this subject, I don't think you have much of an idea how markets - either real world or here - actually work. {nm} RogerMore May 08, 10:52

Apparently you cant read {nm} lopreste May 08, 10:55

To be clearer, proper functioning of a market relies on there being information that can be trusted by investors. RogerMore May 08, 11:01

Very good reply, thank you. {nm} BorderLand May 08, 11:05

+1.....lots of newbs think they're the Jim Kramer of HSX w/o any understanding of this game {nm} alfpaulytd2012 May 08, 12:13

Well, but hang on a moment... forums aren't truth centers, they're just forums Checked Out May 08, 12:42

Because smart traders will invest in the stock, knowing that idiots will also be investing in it. This affects the price, so more RogerMore May 08, 13:47

once you allow one to post a call to action, you allow everyone. then this place becomes an impossible-to-read forums with islander May 08, 13:52

There's nothing wrong with stating your opinion. Just state your reasoning when you do. {nm} RogerMore May 08, 14:34

I love unreasonable assumptions; they're my favorite kind {nm} islander May 08, 14:41

bottom line...its against the rules alfpaulytd2012 May 08, 13:58

In the long-run you cannot, but short-term is a different story. {nm} elchan May 08, 11:00

Oh you most definitely can manipulate the market. You get enough people to follow you in an action on a stock, that stock's price changes. Sammy Jankis May 08, 11:05

the best and only legit call to action is to find real breaking news about a movie, and post it here {nm} jwammo May 08, 11:35
