I agree with the "one sticky at the top" approach. The confusion
yesterday was from the use of the word "otherwise" which could be
construed two ways, etc. Confusion also resulted from the very
unusual occurence of having a multi-entry buy (yesterday) and a
"sell everything" the next day (today). That only happens
infrequently, so it was unfortunate that it happenned during the
second trade in the SPY SYSTEM.
He could post as a sticky and also in the current trade section,
if he wants. But let's keep the sticky...
Let's make it simple. I mean, we get an sms and/or email
as a warning, also...then we check the site and check out the
sticky. If he wants to post something under the "current trade" as
well as the sticky, that's fine...but I vote for MR. STICKY!
I agree with the sticky (better than my Current Trade
idea--thanks, Michael). And I think that Matt is right that
there should be standardized language to indicate what action is to
be taken. That would be easier on Matt and less likely to
confuse new subscribers. Of course, if novel situations
arise, then Matt will do his best to explain them, but such events
should be rare.
