    What a sad way to get some cheap acceptance votes.
    This thread has absolutely no point or benefit to anyone

    I was making a point using humour, didn't expect or need everyone to get it. Your spreadsheet doodles were informative, if just a little bit dull. But well done anyway.

    I suggest you make a list of all the members who have called you a paranoid moron and add me to it.

    Alternatively you are welcome to start a game of - "are you so and so", and I will respond as appropriate.

    Sorry, not interested. Clearly I've hit on a raw nerve though; had you really been a newbie you wouldn't be so aggressive, either here or during your first posts.

    You know who you are, and I couldn't care less. We'll leave it at that.

    and just as the cycle continues then the bear will also perish, the bull will rise again, then it will perish again as the bears rise, then they'll decline as the bulls rise and then blah blah blah

    predicting cycles isn't very psychic

    I enjoy reading posts like this, you can actually smell the desperation.
    It reassures me that i did the right thing buying again, makes me feel good.

    We will not leave it at that. I have been a member here for nearly a week now and I feel you should cut me some slack. I have never been so insult (moderators note - rest of rather long rambling and inflammatory post has been censored)
