| 9/30/2003 Dear Sol I have been playing all your recent small cap picks and its truly remarkable how you are able to give entry and exit prices in advance and 80% of the time they all seem to be met or surpassed, I have never made 20-30% so fast with stocks as I have made trading your recommendations, please put me down for the VIP Sector service subscription Tony ( USA) 9/26/2003 Just wanted to let you know that your call on what the Dow would do in advance was absolutely amazing, how did you do it. In your september 21,2003 mkt udate you stated that the Dow was in the top of it's cyclical range and ready to go down these were your targets 1st target 9600 2nd target 9550, extreme downside targets 9450. by the end of the week all targets were hit and surpassed, I sold down futures based your projections but closed my position to fast as I thought your second and extreme downside target woudl not be hit, How wrong i was. I lost a few thousand dollars of extra profit by not listening to you. Either way I still made a bundle, thanks a million again. Perhaps you could reveal how you were able to predict those targets. Robert (England) Good evening, Sol I was busy from sunrise to sunset so I missed the conference. I was trying to make time but wasn't able to. I appreciate your approach- it is so refreshing from other investing services. Looking forward to this week! Bob Greetings! Never to cease to amaze me how accurate your figures can be! Keep up the great work.I would love to be a part of your newsletter & subscription. Please let me know what is required. Many thanks Albert PS Great to know that you'll be putting out strategies for Options on the DJI as I do trade the DJI options.I also concentrate on the DAX as I find the volatility matches that of Nasdaq and liquidity great and % gain fantastic . Sol, Nice call on the calls. I'm impressed. I am recommending you to my friends and have sent an email to bear market central to ask them to add you to the list. I think your trades and market timing have been great! Keep up the good work. You have been very generous to give your time to help other people like me. We all appreciate it. Ron Hey SP- Great call today!You mentioned in your email that today is the last dayfor free updates. I got the prices off your website,but how does one get the fees to you? Also, the Learn as you Earn Program - is that aone-time $300 fee? I know you're busy. Get back to me when you can.Thanks! Joe SOL Scott Starr wrote:I found your site because I sometimes post on the DR board. Your reccomendations have been on the money so far, and I'm also wondering if there's a way to get into your trading service. regards, Hi Sol, I am interested in signing up for your market update service. Please send me the details when you have them. The new wartime service sounds terrific but I can’t devote enough time to it for a couple of months. I have not traded any of your signals yet but am watching closely. Thanks, Janet Lasell Hi Sol, I am interested in subscribing. I've been following and I would like to continue learning and profiting with your info. Jack Hi Sol: Yes, I would be interested in your investment club and would like to understand all details whenever you are ready to share. Also I have a suggestion regarding your option advisory service if you can bundle all indexes Dow, S&P, QQQ together in one service for intermediate term and another for short term. Thanks, Kirit Shah Sol, My apologies for the lack of feedback. Many thanks for your newsletter and trading tips. Very entertaining, and now that I have the courage to trade based on your performance over the last two months or so, lucrative. trade, or have the time to trade, full time and I´m amazed at how little I know, the more I learn. Back in June/July I thought I was getting rather good as I made GBP in a few weeks by always going short.....since then its been a little trickier....one my biggest mistakes was to underestimate the strength and durability of the recent rally....I note that at the time you were skeptical about the sustainability of the rally too - you thought it might last 2-6 days, so it´s comforting to know, as you are always saying, that you are only human. However, you deserve to be a seriously rich human, partly because of your generosity with your time in helping your students to live a wonderful life. If I had your trading expertise I´m not sure I could find the time to help other through such a time consuming newsletter and service that you put out. I think your language is sometimes vulgar, which I personally could do without, but compared with the brilliance, humour and passion with which you share your insights, that is a minor detail. I have great respect for the Elliott Wave gurus like Prechter and Hochberg, but from a trading standpoint alone, I would trust your judgement on market sentiment over theirs any time. Part of the problem with Hochberg, it seems, is that his "Short Term Update" analysis is too ambiguous. Often so much so that it´s almost useless. Having said that, MACD doesn´t tell me in advance what is going to happen. if its an intraday type of trade, I usually have to be watching all session. In contrast your call for a top yesterday of 8610 was simply excellent. it meant that, an hour before the markets opened, I could feel good about placing a spreadbet trade when IG were quoting Dow Dec around 8625, with a wide stop of 200 (no doubt too wide, but I figured I needed to give this trade plenty of room to breathe just in case you were out by say 100 pts). It looked a little hairy when it ran back up to 8580, but I held on to be well rewarded so far. So thanks a lot. Great call, as have been nearly all of your others. Í´ve now locked in profit by placing a stop at 8518, which was as tight as IG would allow at the time. I also think the market is a lot more bullish than Hochberg realises, in spite of his noting that put/call ratios are near Aug 22 peak levels. Perhaps in a future note you could tell us how you were able to guess your 8610 call so accurately. On a geopolitical note, I´m not sure it´s worth your while taking so much time to prove how idiotic US foreign policy is. Even Bush and his buddies must realise this is a no win war. The sad thing is, if the US were to become isolationist, this would undoubtedly be in the West's interests, faced with crazy enemies, but it would also a licence to every tyrant in the world to cause more trouble, externally an internally than they are already doing. I come from Zimbabwe, which 30 years ago was paradise on earth for white people and a relative paradise for black people. Zimbabwe is nothing that a few hundred well trained British troops couldn´t sort out, as they did with remarkable effect in poor, brutalised Sierra Leone. Doesn´t the West have a responsibility to do even a little to protect people from genocide etc? Keep up the brilliant work Shaun ( Spain) Hi Sol Sorry I have not sent you a reply to your initial welcome email. I've been very busy with travel recently. Anyway, I heard what seemed to be good things about you from the DR discussion board. I have to say, you were right from the start of it. This recent rally has had some legs. The only thing I question on a technical level is how this rally may end up going to Dow 9200, 9500 or even 10200. The way this bear market has played out up to the point is continuing lower lows and lower highs. Wouldn't the Dow at these levels go against the continuing trend? About me - I have a regular day job that keeps me well consumed. So I'm really not in a position to do mid-day trades. I have much more to learn about options before traveling that road. I'm very uncomfortable when it comes to going long right now due to valuations, fundamentals, credit excessed, you name it. I've dabbled in a couple of shorts which have been OK and also Rydex bear funds which originally looked good and have recently been spanked, of course. The recent market action has confused me as it seems the market just goes up because certain people (your PPT, the Illuminati, who knows) just want or need it to go up. But, maybe I'm not seeing what's there to see - I'm very interested to hear your take on today's rally. I thought the market would be up today, but no where near these levels! It been great to see your analysis; I try to take in all types of opinions regarding these very volatile times. I follow the Winning on WS crew (TA) as well as Martin Weiss (gloom and doom). Any thoughts on who not to listen to out there? (Certainly have your opinion on EWI!). Best Regards, Steve Dear Sol I can honestly say that I have benefited more from your newsletters than hundreds of others that I have paid thousands for, after reading your newsletter I decided to cancel almost all my Agora subscriptions, some of which are Lyn carpenters fleet street letter, her contrarian service ( 400 plus a year), red zone ( another pricey one), vantage point, Paul Sarnoff options hotline( very pricey and useless), Weiss options service ( the biggest rip of at 5000 a year) he is just like a broken clock and so out of sheer stupidity has to be right at least once or twice, plus many more. I am glad that I managed to stumble on your website, have you ever considered advertising as I am sure there are many individuals who would simply love to get their hands on your newsletter. Keep up the good work and don’t loose your passion, it is what separates you from the rest of the newsletter junkie crowd. George ( Boca Raton, FL) Never have any complaints about the information you offer Sol. Your providing a wonderful service between your newsletter and website. It will be interesting to see where it goes. If I have one criticism though, it's from my artistic point of view. Your website needs to be re-designed and the twenty page newsletter could be better formatted. For the newsletter, I'd rather see you limit your use of colors and use bolded/italicized fonts in their stead. Use color sets (blue/green) (red, orange, yellow) (red, blue purple) instead of colors that run the gamut of the color spectrum. Each color would serve a specific purpose, I see some of that now, but you could use more consistency and color harmony. Your website needs a cleaner look that's more navigation friendly. Solid website layout and design communicates it's inherit message directly to visitors once the page loads (which should be in a second or two). Note the overall sameness to financial websites, their respective designs communicates a professionalism and seriousness which is exactly what a financial website needs. Had it not been for those first messages by you on the DR forum, the first impression I would have had about your site is that it's one of the conspiracy websites you find time to time tucked in the various corners of the 'net. Currently I am overloaded with art work, but if you'd like, maybe sometime early next year I can design some mock layouts for you? While you want your own unique look and feel, there are certain rules that should be followed in webdesign, or at least rules that should not be broken. Joseph I enjoy your newsletter… it is helping me to be able to follow along on some options trades so that I can figure out what is going on. I don’t have an account to trade options yet, since I don’t fully understand them. Do you have a good book that you would recommend on how options work and how to trade them? I found out about your newsletter from the Daily Reckoning message board. It is good to hear that you have Jim Sinclair posting articles, he is also the Chairman, CEO and Director of Tan Range Exploration, of which I own some stock. Keep up the great work! Jack (Canada) Sol, I became aware of your existence from the Daily Reckoning discussion board. I am glad I did. You really seem to know what is going on in the markets. I haven't as yet acted on any of your recommendations because I am still learning more about options. My only experience in the past was writing covered call options which did not prove all that profitable. I have only been reading your Newsletter for two weeks and already I look forward in anticipation of receiving it. You mentioned that you are planning to offer a investment advisory service which will be free for the first few months. I would like you to add my name to the list. Tom ( canada) Hi Sol, Excuse me while I wipe my eyes. I just finished reading your update and I laughed so hard tears are falling down my face. Your witty prose and hilarious quotes are a breath of fresh air. Very few want to see what is coming, but you have warned them now, so no whining is allowed. Just think what will happen if the moslems demand gold for their oil payments. You know there have been dozens of people who have predicted a future where there would be rioting in the streets. I always thought this was a bit extreme, but I am starting to wonder. Anyway, I digress from the original intent of this e-mail. Keep up the good work and don't lose that humor of yours. Regards, Debra Sol: As I am new here makes not a whole lot of differance.I am without a doudt ,IMPRESSED with your ability and writing knack. I am so impressed I am going to open up an account with Ameriteck and start trading again.I have lost a lot with clowns such as Agora but am willing and anxious to try again with you as it is apparent you know the markets.Not to say you won't be wrong sometimes but I'll take that chance. Bill Martin ( mexico) Wow Sol! I don't know if you're lucky or you know your stuff :)) but your tips have worked out very nicely. Unfortunately for me, I've missed out on the party. I was either busy or had my funds tight up. Keep up the enriching good work :) Lagos Thanks, Sol. Keep up the good work. :) Marjie Hi. I read the back issues on the site, and I like what you're saying, cuz I don't like sugar coated crap. How you characterize the experts, etc. is great man. I'd be interested in your book, or whatever it is on options. I'd like to read something that is more direct and practical than most of the option books I've read. Sometimes the writing doesn't read smoothly. That's the only criticism I have, but it doesn't bother me cuz the message is what's important, and I like reading it. Jack  Sol, As of today...no complaints. I have only been on your list for a short time and have been really impressed with your market trend insights. Not being an options trader or any trader really (this from revelations a al sol and others), I am interested in your methodology of trend clairvoyance. Are there any steadfast rules that can be followed 9 times out of 10 or are rules just another trap? Something for you that you may want to use: Rule of holes. When in one, stop digging. Dan (Canada) Sol I enjoy the emails that I have been receiving from you for a few weeks now. I am not yet an options trader (greenhorn), however, I would like to learn how to profit from the market conditions using options. I've just been monitoring your recommendations and I expect my trading account will be ready in a day or two for when I feel like I am ready to take the trading plunge. I often do not have the time available to monitor the markets all day, so my concern is missing an important move. Does this subscription include your Oex and SPX service? I would like to try this service if you feel that it will help me learn how to profitably trade options. I took your advice and read The Creature from Jekyll Island and I must say that it is one of the creepiest and most disturbing books that I have ever read! Thank you, Garry are you kidding, I put your email at the top of my reading list Walter Hi, Sol. I think your newsletter is developing just fine. I only trade options and the Q's on a very short term basis. I do not have as much time as I would like to devote to the market. For me, your newsletter and related information from others is more information than I have time to utilize. I use you newsletter to help me time the market and enjoy you extremely straight forward approach. I am a 65 yr old female and it in no way offends me. Thanks for having me on your list. Sincerely, Marjie  Very interesting as usual. You probably do not have much feedback because a> you stumped the panel, b> you will receive more now that you have asked for it, c> it takes a while to assimilate. Your approach is with passionate anger and disgust so one would probably be inclined to withhold disagreements that were not well researched or without an equal amount of passion. I am uncertain who your 1700 recipients are so cannot say what kind of response you will get. Please pass on the interesting comments; it would be fun to find out who thinks what in response to your issued challenges. KAY ( Texas) Dear Sol, I really enjoy your newsletter. The quotes are inspirational Unfortunately, I suspect you won't get a lot of feed back until you breech the popularity barrier, and then you'll get too much. This is despite your stuff being better than expensive "popular stuff" Bat on brother! John ( Australia) . Hi Sol I agree with Tom whole heartedly, I have learnt more from your free newsletter than I have from some of the most priciest newsletters out there some of which cost in excess of 1500 a year. I admire your attempts and trying to get the individual to think and see the picture from a broader perspective. I hope you keep up this service and though I know that people have been slow to post comments or give you feedback, in time your newsletter and website will gather momentum and you will receive more feedback than you might be capable of handling.Should you decide to eventually charge for this letter, count me as one of your first paying subscribers. keep up the good work, there is really a shortage of contrarian thinkers that speak with the passion and intensity that you do. Edward ( England) P.S. I have recommended your website to all my friends so don't surprised when you receive a flurry of emails Hi Sol. I don't want you to take time to answer this e-mail, but I feel such an impulse to thank you again for sharing your thinking and your way of looking at the markets. You do an incredible amount of work and then share it. I am one who is really trying to learn all this and it is such a gift to me that you are willing to send me these insightful updates, evaluations, reasons for why you recommend certain things. For this gal out here in Montana, it is a goldmine. Thank you. Arial |
