Woodies CCI Club and what am I missing.........just money I guess

For a long time, from summer of 2002 in Orlando, past the Las Vegas conference, the first trade a long, to the second one, on to the third one and so on....alot of people who believed in the slogans would ask.....Where are the donations? This blog has been asking that question since the first day it was published....Where is the beef? Then along came Peregine Charities and PFG and everything was going to be handled by "them'. Two workshops in 2005, one in Denver and one in the Lone Star state brought us these letters that were proudly posted on the WoodiesCCIClub website to show the world that it wasn't someone in the cookie jar.

Wow, it looked great, finally we saw for the first time in over 3 years that..YES, indeed money was going to help the kids as promised. Well, that was 2005 and it's now 2008 and in the last 3 years.....silence......so being the guy who asks questions since the brown shirts in the Woodies CCI Club went out of their way to make my life a living hell, I thought.....maybe I should take a look and see what is out there...in this little cyper world we live in. The first stop was to check out the charity on the letterhead. Peregrine Charities is registered in Illinois so I started there.

Anytime you want to read what is in the pictures, just click them on as you follow along......yes they are good to go......

Well, well you can actually see their filings and also their annual report that is filed with the State of Illinois. For the period starting on 01/01/05 right to the end of the year...12/31/05, so we have the right return anyways....now you can visit the link at the top of each picture if you want to check it out yourself.....

We come to Part XV, the supplementary information and listed are two charities that Peregrine Charities gave money to, Don Duncan Family Foudation in Las Vegas, NV and of course the Make-a-Wish Foundation in Phoenix, AZ. But wait, I thought the letter were from Denver and Irving not the MAW of America. Hummmm, that doesn't add up, I mean why won't it have been entered as giving $11,625.66 to the Denver chapter and
$14,141.45 to the North Texas chapter instead of the main office in Phoenix. Just a question, but I have to think you would be very careful on what you would put on an annual report to the government and sign it....won't you?
So I went one step more and checked out the Don Duncan Family Foundation in Neveda and got this email back after spending an hour and not finding anything about it in Neveda......

YIKES.....no entries.......which means that they "COULD" possibly be in our archival database for "FAILING TO FILE" for more then 10 years....no that doesn't sound good does it? So let's check out the Make-a-Wish database on donors......

Make-a-Wish ends their year on August 31st, so that means that any donation made after August 31, 2005 would be in their 2006 annual report. Both workshop and letters were after that cut off date and according to the annual report filed with the State of Illinois the amount was $35,392.00, but, looking at the 2006 donors list for contributions of over $25,000.00 there is "NO" mention of this donation. Now I know what you might be thinking, yea...I bet they are in the 2005 report and he is just bad mouthing our hero....he wouldn't do this. Well, check it out dude....check it out.

So what do you believe, who is telling the truth, who is using smoke and mirrors to squrriel away cash from the workshops. You can visit the Make-a-Wish annual press releases by typing in "make a wish 2006 annual" or even "make a wish 2005 annual" and it's was the third one down on my google search engine. Why isn't there any mention of either Peregrine Charities, (which up to this point, I thought was beyond reproach(, Ken Woods or the Woodies CCI CLub. And now, everyday the push is on to get everyone to buy the DVD box set so that the money can go to the kids......and I ask WHO'S KIDS????

WAKE UP FOLKS.......if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, most likely it ain't going to lay you a golden egg anytime soon.

The Woodies CCI Club and it's short term future

There are always those little secrets that float around, you know, what no one wants to talk about and are afraid to ask in the first place. It seems that after the last Vegas workshop, of course, it's not called a Trade-a-Long any more because in order to actually trade along....someone would have to been trading and showing their stuff in real time and anyone that has been to one of them knows...what ain't going to happen.

So it's a workshop now, some theory, some what if's, some speakers who talk about this and that and a few hours of getting the good ole sales pitch...the best dog and pony show since PT did it himself. Well, it seems that not everyone was happy with this latest attempt to push products or the endless pushing for the newbies to buy the DVD box set and the ground is shifting again as some might just to ready to come from the dark side and walk out of the Land of Wood and into the light........

Come out of the dark shadows and it will be done, on earth as in heaven, Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us. Lead us not back into temptation again, but deliver us from that evil. For his kingdom, his power and his glory will never be again but your own light will become much brighter as it should..........and so we wait for the news...we wait to see who is next on the list of from the 16 members of the Hall of Flame to go up in smoke....

Some days all you can do is smile........

Some days all you can do is smile and wait for some kind soul to come pull your ass out of the bind you've gotten yourself into. That is exactly what we try to do in the chat room everyday, nothing to sell, no hidden agenda, nothing to sign up for, no prefurred broker, open and free to all, no puppets and where you can PM others and chat about whatever, it's just a bunch of fellow traders trying to keep from gettin into a tight spot and our feet on the ground.

If you are afraid to speak your mind in the WoodiesCCIClub.com then why not spread your wings, lift your head and help us light up some more candles....

Fruits and Vegetables of America.....Unite!!!!!

COLUMBIA, SC - Senator Hillary Clinton in a speech to the Farm Workers of America gave some background to the 35 years of experience that she believes makes her the most qualified to be the next Democratic presidential nominee; here is part of that speech:

"I think it's fitting that I'm addressing you, the hard working class of fruit and vegetable workers, since, my early start in public life was as a vegetable, so to speak. I was not crowned Miss Iceberg Lettuce, as some would have you believe, at the Illinois Warren County fair, but was runner up as Miss Split Pea. I was crowned Miss Split Pea after it was discovered the original winner was a transvestite.”

As Miss Split Pea, I traveled to various state fairs throughout the country. I eventually, met Bill at the Hope County Fair in Arkansas. He was quite the ladies man even then, eyeing Miss Melons, Miss Peach and Miss Flowers. I really got to know him after he was crowned Mr. Dill Pickle and we started working together, organizing State Fairs. We eventually married and forgive me if I get a little teary eyed, produced a little pearl onion, Chelsea -- whew, that was tough.”

With the help of Mr. Potato Head, Miss Collard Green, Mr. String Bean, Miss Carrot Top and countless others, I worked to merge County and State fairs into a National organization. Had I known then what I know now I might have done things differently. There were some, like Mr. Black-Eyed Pea, Miss Artichoke, Miss Leeks and I believe Mr. Sauerkraut who disagreed with the policy and wanted to get out immediately without any thought of the consequences. I disagreed with that position thinking it very naïve and showing total lack of experience.”

"I learned from those early days that experience counts and that change without understanding is not the prudent path to follow.”

"And so I ask, you when you cast your vote, to remember the experience of Miss Split Pea versus the naiveté of Mr. Black-Eyed Pea.”

"Thank You and God bless the fruits and vegetables of America."

OH FUDGE.........daytrading your dreams

Just one of those days....were you short....???

Well, if you were short since December 27, 2007 that is great....the world has been upside down for several weeks. Recession in the air, sub-primes on the rope, credit tightening up, disappointing earnings....the list is long enough for sure.

Then came Monday, a holiday here in the USA and the markets were closed as the pacific rim took it on the chin. I found it very interesting to see why the US market was closed, we have a huge selloff.....seen funny to me.....just a little funny. But, after years of doing this everyday, it also seems normal.

You know, you see a stock selling off for some reason overnight, on low volume and then when the market opens everyone is heading for the door, you have to wonder who is on the other side of your trade.......and why would "they" be buying if the stock is crapola. Which brings me back to this open, the FIRST BAR TRADE was in one word.....WOW
Those in the chat room had a good run this morning right off the open. I wonder how many trader were shorting at some point this morning, thinking about the news, what MARIA said, and some newsletter thought. Maybe if you were one of them, you might want to think about why.........because it was a dead cat bounce.

Well, this says it all.....doesn't it.

OUCH, if nothing else, isn't it time for a new vision.....a new direction.....instead of either a Bush or a Clinton....

Depress....Depressed........Depression...........

There is no doubt the Fed and the PPT are meeting right now. A drop of over 300 points on the Dow after the Chairman of the Federal Reserve speaks publicly presages a $1000 break in gold coming quite quickly, if not tomorrow.

Unless the equity markets can be calmed, a panic is about to happen, making the statement "This is it" a horrible reality.

If the equity markets cannot be calmed then:

Recognize this is the Formula happening like everything else much sooner and much bigger in its implications than anticipated. Gold will rise to $1650 as an almost immediate effect of what will be done to attempt to fend off a total panic starting to take place in general equities, therein threatening to be followed by all credit markets of all kinds. The funds and hotshot short term traders in gold shares will be killed by the upward explosion of the gold price about to occur.

The PPT and the Fed will step out of gold’s way because gold is one of the tools used in 1930 by Roosevelt and in 2000 by Bush. It will be used again now on the upside. Gold is the only insurance there is against what all this means because a panic in equities will blow the financial system, already coming apart, to smithereens. All country funds would shut down on any further investments in "at the wall" financial institutions. The rollover in credit and default derivatives would exceed the entire foreign debt of the USA.

The rest of the $450 trillion dollar mountain of derivatives would start a disintegration like nothing you have every seen in your lifetime. Consumer demand would slam shut. The auto industry might as well go into liquidation this coming Monday, avoiding the June 2008 rush. The US dollar would burn a hole in the floor going directly to .5200 or lower. As the dollar disintegrates gold would rocket to and through $1650 in days.

The markets for general equities would all have to institute total trading halts every 100 points on the downside for 30 minutes each. All commercial call loans would be called. All debtors one day late on any payment, lacking grace period, would be liquidated. All debtors over one day of the grace period would be liquidated. It is clearly visible to anyone with eyes or a mind to think that the PPT has lost all semblance of control in the equity markets and will soon in all remaining markets.

The commercial paper credit market which is almost dead will die totally.
Should no emergency action take place soon, you will see an old fashioned panic of the 1929 variety. Just as emotional fools sell gold and gold shares, be assured that more emotional general equity fools will unload and bring the averages down more than ever in history in one day. Recognize this is the Formula happening like everything else much sooner and much bigger in its implications than anticipated.
Emergency action will be all splash and theatrics but truthfully the cat is out of the bag. It buys some time but corrects nothing. It makes the Formula 100% correct.
There now must be EMERGENCY ACTION because the Chairman of the Fed has BOMBED OUT PUBLICLY and a PANIC is about to occur. Expect EMERGECNY ACTION in days, not weeks.

If you have not protected yourself, you may only have days to do so now., now you can go to bed and dream.....that somehow these market gurus that think to much and actually trade very little will wake up to one fact. There is always two sides to the market.....and their opinion means ZIPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!

I got a ton of emails a day.....but this one...WOW!!!

So there I was, with nothing to do, the markets were closed today, it's the middle of winter and really cold outside, nothing on TV-Land, so I thought well let me see if there are any emails that need an answer...........

My heart dropped as this was the first email to come up.....as I read thru it, I noticed a couple of things......."Deliberate wrong inputs are criminally pursued and indicated". Hummm, shouldn't that be indicted.

OF course, I'm not sure, but I think the email address could be a problem also, I mean do you really think that the IRS would use the email address of tax_refund@google.com?

But we could surely use that $203.59......couldn't we? But, I guess it would be safe to just click on the link and give them my credit card info so they could credit my account......would they need my Social Security number also.....?

Why I do what I do..........you need to ask...

There are people who believe....and I am fine with this, that I am up to something...no one just helps others, no one just take their time to lend a hand in some way without an agenda......there is just no way.

I must to selling something, a book, a magazine, systems, private sessions, something. Well, like I said, believe what you want.

But for those who have an open mind, they have been having some success with their trading. They have been doing better....maybe not big time better, that is only smoke and mirrors.....but better everyday, every week....they are feeling good about their trading and see a brighter future......

And for those.......they don't care either what people may said either because they know for them.....it's all about having a new beginning, that is what drives me not just a few pieces of gold from the sheep.......

And it's off to Hew Hampshire......what about Wyoming??

By Adam Poxonu

THE ORANGE PEKOE NEWSCONCORD, New Hampshire -- Just days before the January 8th New Hampshire Primary, a focus group of Democrats, Republicans and Independents was gathered at the Winnacunnet High School auditorium. The Ladies Tea and Biscuit Club of Chicks Corner thought ---“we the people…” --- should be asking the Presidential hopefuls the questions instead of the “talking heads”.

While the mainstream media were not invited, student Eric Shun managed to get some of the session on his iPHONE to share with us.Unfortunately, the responses were inaudible due to the candidates trying to yell over one another. Here, is part of the transcript:

Mr. Mike Huckabee,“Apart from being ‘able to leap tall buildings in a single bound’ your campaign suggests you can do anything because you’re the closest to God. Do you think now, is the time to change your name to Clark Kent?”

Mr. John Edwards,“In your debate of 2004 with Vice President Cheney you said --- “the fact that they have a gay daughter, the fact that they embrace her. It's a wonderful thing ---” I’m sure your comment was out of concern and sensitivity and nothing more. So the question to your sensitive side is which cowpoke in the movie Brokeback Mountain would you embrace?”

Governor Romney,“Many people are questioning the reinventing of yourself on positions you held in the past such as abortion, immigration, gay rights, the environment, it’s almost as if for the last several years you’ve been in outer…
“Gort! Klaatu barada nikto!”…
…Thank you sir, I come in peace.”

Senator Obama,“There have been reports suggesting you are a distant cousin to Vice President Dick Cheney. If you were quail hunting with Dog the Bounty hunter and your buckshot went errant, would you hit him on the right side of the face or the left testicle?”

Senator Clinton,“You say you have 35 years of experience. Do you think you may be over qualified to be President of the United States?”

Senator McCain, “You have a reputation of having a quick temper. If you were in a heated discussion with Senator Byrd that you didn’t think was going to be resolved; would you turn your back and walk away or kick his walker and let him fall flat on his face?”

Mr. Fred Thompson,“Dr.Robert Boucher,FDA ear nose and throat specialist, has warned of a sudden reduction or loss…ah, over this way Mr. Thompson… of hearing following the…I have a sore throat but I’ll try to speak louder… use of Viagra,Cialis and Levitra. Do you think it’s necessary in light of this and other recent problems to revamp the procedures used by the FDA?”

Mayor Giuliani,“From the beginning of your public career, some of your actions have suggested insensitivity and grandstanding. When you were U.S. Attorney you had the Kidder, Peabody executives led away in handcuffs, while, Mayor of New York City you put pressure on the squeegee guys, your second wife, Donna Hanover, has had issues with your behavior and more recently, questions have been raised about expenses incurred while you were having an affair with your current third wife, Judy. Do you think this propensity for rubbing people the wrong way…

“…could you repeat the question, I was on my cell with Judy”…

…never mind I think my question was answered.”

[Barely audible] “Edna if you take one more of Clara’s Snickerdoodles I’m going to stick my hand down that big fat butt of yours and give you a wedgie that’ll take an hour to undo.”

Lookin for a bird dog??????

Given a couple of weeks.......and I thought Bill was horny!!!

What a great country we have ....a chicken in every pot

What a great country we have....a chicken in every pot, a tax break for every cause and who doesn't like a little pork. I know I love "PORK" but mostly with Bar-b-que sauce dripping all over it....BUT.

Just to make sure that you can see Hillary up close like as if she was in your living room...in HDTV.....the democrats in Congress has decided to give you folks that ain't smart enough to get it on your own.......a converter box...... To request a coupon, ya'll can apply online at http://www.dtv2009.gov starting Tuesday. The government also has set up a 24-hour hotline to take requests, 1-888-DTV-2009 (1-888-388-2009). It will be mosly a voice mail system explaining how to go online after you press 17 different button......but HEY, this is America after all.

Now the rest of us folks that is smart enough to figure this here thingie out, we can just go to Radio Shack, either way we pay for both.......but at least the boys in Washington are working overtime on this one......just like they did for Katrina.

Where are those trailers again for those people.....oh yea in Arkansas......oh it's just another one of those details you tend to forget about.....

The two heads of you..............

Most of you, I suspect, have heard of the Roman god, Janus, after whom the month of January is named. He is the god of beginnings and the guardian of gates and doors. He is represented on Roman coins and in statues as having two heads, back to back. In his right hand, he holds a key. And, perhaps, thinking about this two-faced Roman god will offer us a key to how we can pass through the door to the new year, as individuals and rise to a new level......just maybe.

The one head is looking back while the other head is looking forward, and this is some respects is what New Years Day is about. A new beginning, a list of things to do in the new year, lose weight, stop smokin, finish college and so on. But I would like to talk about the other side of Janus. The one looking back, we all do it, what we could have done, what we could have done better, why didn't we think of this and why we did that.....MAN, was that stupid. You can pound yourself in the ground looking back at all that garbage in your life.

You bought this program, signed up for that chat room, followed the guru right into the ground....and ended up with just plain garbage.

You heard in some chat room about this filter and the latest indicator and followed it right into the ground using what ended up being just more garbage.

You read in an article in some magazine, saw an infomercial, bought some DVD's on trading and followed it right into the ground.....a hope that turned into garbage.

You now look back and think, what the heck was I thinking and more important what do I do now. I have lost money, time and energy working on this trading thing, trying to make a living. It looked so easy, they said it was as easy as clicking your mouse, follow the pattern, but here you are........at the end of the year and still not there. What garbage are going to haul into 2008, you look at your credit card statements and see all the stuff you bought and can't believe you are still no better today then you were last year at this time.

We all have garbage, we all have things that we will forever look back on and think about how we screwed up, that is a part of life. Making mistakes is part of life, learning from them is part of life, but we are talking about trading for a living here.

Today, you should think about only one thing......has the stuff I used to trade with provided me with the opportunity, I desired, to reach the next level in my trading career or in my life? If it hasn't, then why are you going to take it with you as we begin a new? Hundreds of readers come thru here everyday, I guess, for a number of reasons, but if you are struggling, then what are you going to do? Now, is the time to decide!! Not three months from now, not at the end of 2008 if you still have any money left, but NOW........TODAY.........

Janus, has two heads, one to look back at the past and one to look forward to the future. Can you leave the garbage behind, remember it, reflect on it, but let it there and start a new???? ..........Can you believe in yourself, trust in yourself and make 2008 that year when "YOU" did some amazing things....things you have not even thought of yet but will be revealed as you reach that new level in your life.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.........

Ever wonder why we can't compete with China???

One Word....OSHA.

Steve Matrix sends me an email.........WOW!!!

You can click on the picture and read the email for yourself, but this afternoon I received an email from Mr. Steve Matrix about having used my trading desk to promote his business.

I believe that when someone comes clean, says they are sorry and asks you to forgive them for whatever happened......you only have one choice.

I do forgive you Steve for using my trading desk and only wish you the best as you move forward in your life. Getting retribution would never be part of my style, I can only hope that whatever tragedy you faced it has make you a stronger person, one that now extends his hands out to those who need it the most.

What a Great Christmas gift........Semper Fidelis to you and yours......and PEACE BRO!!!

WE knew him as The Big Cheese but..........

So this guy, just like the rest of us was trying to learn how to trade when he wondered into the WoodiesCCIClub.com, LLC. He watched, he followed, he asked questions, he listened...yes he was just like the rest of us. But, then one day it happened, Gio had her mic open (by mistake) and also had taken a CCI setup that didn't work out, (A LOSER) and she said, "OH, FUDGE".

Well that started it, The Big Cheese was off and running and the rest of us would log in two or three times a day just to see what he wrote in the his blog about the WoodiesCCIClub.com, LLC and the moderators, and we would have a good laugh. I never personally thought of it as laughing at the moderators themselves, after all we were all in the same boat. But at how he would write about it, the sense of humor was classic and how he would take a simple little thing and blow it up bigtime.

I heard rumors but as time went by....The Big Cheese became a distance memory until today in the chat room. His name came up.....and his name was Bob Lassiter and here is a couple of links so you can follow along as to what happen to Bob.

http://www.sptimes.com/2006/10/17/Artsandentertainment/
Radio_s_Bob_Lassiter_.shtml

http://www.bloglassiter.com/wp/

So Bob, we'll miss ya and that great sense of humor......rest in peace man rest in peace...........

Enough Said.........

Finally got my lights up and working......

I love you guys, got an email this afternoon from a trading buddy that he finally got his Christmas lights and I guess working.......ROTFL.

The reason behind what I do......

There is always someone that believes everyone is always out after something or has a hidden agenda, that no one just does something for the good of their fellow man and I understand this. This weekend Jordon Hensley came home from the hospital after receiving a new heart and what a great Christmas gift for her family. But, at the same time, Ashley Paine's family will have Christmas this year without their daughter who was killed in fatal bus crash a few weeks back. There are stories that touch us from time to time...where someone did something that makes you go...WOW, now that is great....

As most of you know, and from first hand, that it's not unusually for our family to do things for others, sometimes for a reason and mostly likely for no reason. We help raise babies and pre-schoolers so they mom's can finish college and make a better life for themselves and their kids, of course, that one is for a reason, it's planned. The Oktoberfest for the United Way, the Boys and Girls Club, ASPCA are among a few things that are all planned very carefully.

When I decided to finally do the educational workshop and trade=a=long here at the house, it was decided not to lay the cost onto the attendees, most of whom are friends of mine and have listened for over 4 years about my dream, but just have them come and hangout. Then I thought, what if they gave something to my local charites...and the rest is history.....over 89k went directly to those charities.

Last Thursday, while at the Mountain Hope Clinic yard sale, from the fire that the Jim Gray Gallery had a week earlier. I bought this very nice handmade plant holder thingie by giving a donation to the clinic, it was a little burnt around the edges, and had a chip or two in it.....but like me, life had tested it and it survived. Yes, most of you think I am on the top of the pile so to speak, but it hasn't always been that way......there was a time when a good hot 3 course meal would have been the highlight of my week. So I can relate to this little plant holder when I picked it up and checked it out.......

Why do I do what I do now, because I learned at that yard sale, that donations are still coming in from out of state.....600 from Georgia, 350 from Florida and then my email box, will ever so often receive an email like this one. Someone has turned their boat around, someone is now being a good steward, someone now believes in themselves, someone is now giving to others, which is what Christmas is all about, HE gave his only Son to us, so that we might live.

It's not what you get in life that matters, it's what you give....what have you done today???????

WoodiesCCIClub.com WARNING WARNING!!!!!!!

Well, I know first hand the tricks that the brown shirt in the WoodiesCCIClub.com, LLC do to anyone that does not tow the line or even question what they do. In 2003 during the second Woodies CCI Conference in Vegas, I noticed a few things that didn't add up, and then after the first Trade-a-Long in Chicago when Hoot gave Woodie all the cash from the 72 attendees and he said, "Well, this is going to work out better then I thought", that was it for me. I started to questions some of the things that were going on, but in my own private password protected hotcomm.com chat room with my trading buddies. Within a few minutes, he would answer the question over in his room. Well, the emails flew between all of us we then decided to see if he was really reading our text. So we set him up and sure enough, he was again defending his turf........"Well, there is 10 winners in a row, see how easy that is, you don't need no stinking prices, hope everyone got all those winners...yack yack yack, yack".

Then came Gio........and after working for Woodie and doing anything he wanted....stocks.....moderating...on and on...suddenly she was gone. She had violated a rule, she wanted to do a workshop in chicago with Jean-Yus and he said NO.

Then came DrBob....again after working for Woodie and doing anything to help others....he started to get more attention with his idea of using the length of 50 instead of 14......well when DrBob candle was shining brighter then his.....WELL!!

Then came along TW, again after working for Woodie and doing everything he could and one his own dime....you guessed it.....He blew out TW candle.

Now the latest, after a long history of tricks and deception, having people do moderatoring for "HIM", doing video presentations for "HIM", answering thousands of questions from newbies instead of "HIM", responsing to endless emails about this and that inplace of "HIM", Woodie has struck again and WHY???? There once was a whole host of things that was available that mPlay did on his own time and for FREEEEeeeeeeeeee. Now, there are no more.

Which brings us to this question, for those who are in that cult....what is in your future? Are you working for the good of the room, but at the same time afraid of stepping out of line for one second. Do you worry about someone that you made friends with and no there aren't around anymore.....WHY they aren't there anymore?

You have to know....deep in your heart, that things aren't as they seem. Traders helping Traders....a great slogan for sure, but have you ever seen Woodie or TonyUK stand up and trade live in front of ANYONE? Have you ever seen anything that would even suggest that he actually does give money to Make-a-Wish? Oh, I know there have been a whole list of people that have given with their hearts to Make-a-Wish but in honor of the WoodiesCCIClub.com, LLC or Ken Woods himself. But, where is it that "HE" gave and not the followers.....his blinded sheep.....baaa baaa......


Here is the link you should visit and read from mPlay himself about his view of all this....http://mplayoptions.com/cci-monkeys.html and you can click on the title bar above to view the link and what has happened since we was advised to "GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE, and THANKS FOR NOTHING". "You ain't doin no class about how the CCI might not work that good", He said. But, not one word will be said in his chatroom about this latest work of BSski from Ken Wood and his brown shirts and.......WHY?????

Because none of the followers of the WoodiesCCIClub.com, LLC. have the balls to standup like a man and ask questions...that's why!!! I remember back in my college days about a poem from Pastor Martin Niemöller.......First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew. Then they came for the Communists and I did not speak out because I was not a Communist. Then they came for the trade unionists and I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me.

To all those who follow this blog and are in the WoodiesCCIClub.com, LLC when will they come for you? When will the day come that you are out in the cold, forgotten and lonely, with no place to go? No place to hang out during the day or have fellowship with other traders it's not a matter "IF", only a matter of WHEN!!!

Like 12 year old Taylor Max and a wish.......

There she was in front of thousands of people singing the National Anthem at the Poinsettia Bowl in 2006, her life long dream. No it wasn't the Orange Bowl or even the Rose Bowl....no National Championship game either, but it was her dream and that is all the counted. She wasn't Whitney Houston or a Kate Smith, just Taylor Max living her dream.....and she did.

You see the Make-a-Wish Foundation made it happen, and that is why people do what they do for this charity, so kids can live their dreams. Which brings us today in the WoodiesCCIClub.com chat room, as the head master was begging people to buy the DVD set for $899.00, so he could send it on to MAW. Since 100% of the proceeds that WOODIE recevies go directly to help the kids......if he said it once he said it 50 times.........

So I guess the question that needs to be asked, if you have to pay $30.00 to send six DVD by snail mail......I checked it would be about $6.20 in the US and Cananda, and all the money goes to MAW after Woodie gets it. Then why over work Woodie in the first place......can't we just send the $899.00 directly to MAW and then send the email confirmation or receipt to the WoodieCCIClub.com and get the home study course and then pay the shipping cost......

That would make more sense then having Woodie keep track of everything, during the holidays and this way the kids would get their wishes ASAP.....some don't have a lot of time. So buy the DVD, send the money to MAW.com and then forward it on to Woodie...I am sure he would be fine with this......Just trying to help traders get theirs....

ROTFL.........thanks for the laugh.......

150 contracts in ER2? How about you show us a brokerage statement?
Until then, I can't say I really believe it. You say you did it live but what does that mean? You posted in your room what, "I've just shorted 150 contracts." That ain't saying much. Any nut can say what they want in their own room. And the pics don't prove anything. I don't see a an account number. Most pros I know will not trade 150 contracts in ES because the queue is so thin during the holidays. And what are you teaching your room by going from 6 to 150 contracts? Do us all a favor, post your brokerage statement or put the bong down. Anyone with any kind of experience knows you can't pull that off during the holidays.

I love you post, keep them up...PLEASE.....
First thing you need to do is go and check the daily volume on at the CME. If you need help let me know. Here are the facts for the 19th of each month listed below.

Product Oct Nov Dec
ES 1.5m 2.1m 2.6m
ER 191k 316k 493k

This means the volume is increasing and not decreasing so "pulling" it off during the holiday it actually easier.

What am I teaching?
NOTHING.....The chat room is for people...(mostly trading buddies) to hang out and share ideas in an open enviroment. Not like that WoodiesCCIClub.com where you can't say anything about anything for fear of pissing the Princess of the Wooden Shaft off.
I trade like I trade and I really don't care about how someone might feel, they don't pay anything so they are free to go anytime they want.....All I am showing is how I setup a trade, if I see a setup on the higher time frame like Tuesday (15m) work I do what I do when I see that.

When I was about 12-14 and the girls would talk about.....you know....I would always say, "Hey, you show me yours and I'll show you mine". So, post your Broker Statement here and then I'll post mine. But, I don't believe, by posting using the Anonymous sign in, that you have the balls to do that, now do you or even your boss.

But, starting in January 2008, I will be entering a contest and we'll let that broker show you the results and then you can decide for yourself. Other then that, I really don't give a flying raspberry what you think, I'll just keep on truckin and doing my thing......simple as that!!!!

WOW what a day in the chat room..........

SO there we were it was 12:03 and lunch time had arrived, I had been trading a 6 lot up until then as the market just bounced around with no direction. I was in the hope mode, praying to caught the next big swing and there was no follow thru. Since I am a trend trader and this was a swingers only morning it wasn't lookin pretty as I sat there eating my sub......not at all. Eighty people in the chat room had seen the worse trading in a month. I told them that these narrow range eat you alive but out of that comes wide range and I only had to stay out of trouble until then.
Then the sixth trade of the day trigger and I shorted, only to get clipped out yet again for a small loss but by this time, I was in no mood for any losses much less even a small one......then is triggered again just as I was getting stopped....and I thought..........................THE HELL WITH IT and went into hammer down mode, I had just had a total of 6 losses and I knew from my research it was time to get'r back so I load up the boat and set sail....

I use ninja charting and order entry to manage the trade and once I got to BE, my world started to turn around, the light of day can thru the windows, but until then I could feel my heart pounding in my throat......I had my target the world was good again......

IT was real good, as the next 4 trades were just nailing the entries and exits....tick extremes, stoch pullback and the secret sauce, shoot we even had a crown pattern setup that was worth a few bucks.......The traders in the room must still be talking about the live show that went on today...I have to believe.

OK some ground rules there SPOT!!!!

PET RULES

To be posted VERY LOW on the refrigerator door - nose height.

Dear Dogs and Cats,
The dishes with the paw prints are yours and contain your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food. Please note, placing a paw print in the middle of my plate of food does not stake a claim for it becoming your food and dish, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in the slightest.

The stairway was not designed by NASCAR and is not a racetrack.
Beating me to the bottom is not the object. Tripping me doesn't help because I fall faster than you can run.

I cannot buy anything bigger than a king sized bed. I am very sorry about this. Do not think I will continue sleeping on the couch to ensure your comfort. Dogs and cats can actually curl up in a ball when they sleep. It is not necessary to sleep perpendicular to each other stretched out to the fullest extent possible. I also know that sticking tails straight out and having tongues hanging out the other end to maximize space is nothing but sarcasm.

For the last time, there is not a secret exit from the bathroom. If by some miracle I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is not necessary to claw, whine, meow, try to turn the knob or get your paw under the edge and try to pull the door open. I must exit through the same door I entered. Also, I have been using the bathroom for years --canine or feline attendance is not mandatory.

The proper order is kiss me, then go smell the other dog or cat's butt. I cannot stress this enough!

To pacify you, my dear pets, I have posted the following message on our front door:

To All Non-Pet Owners Who Visit & Like to Complain About Our Pets

1. They live here. You don't.
2. If you don't want their hair on your clothes, stay off the furniture. (That's why they call it 'fur'niture.)
3. I like my pets a lot better than I like most people.
4. To you, it's an animal. To me, he/she is an adopted son/daughter who is short, hairy, walks on all fours and doesn't speak clearly.

Remember: Dogs and cats are better than kids because they:
1. Eat less
2. Don't ask for money all the time
3. Are easier to train
4. Usually come when called
5. Never drive your car
6. Don't hang out with drug-using friends
7. Don't smoke or drink
8. Don't worry about having to buy the latest fashions
9. Don't wear your clothes
10. Don 't need a gazillion dollars for college, and
11. If they get pregnant, you can sell their children

WoodiesCCIClub.com had another problem.......

There he was, he had worked so hard on everything...you know moderating, answering the endless questions from newbies, doing those recorded session of how to play options, emails, TAL and whatever was needed, mPlay was there.....BUT!!!!

The day came when he had to go, Woodie had had enough of mplay, the reason isn't important when "HE" is in one of "HIS" moods, the decision had been made and TonyUK had approved......and then it came......BUZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

Like so many before him, like DAX, remember DAX.....and the famous commodities trader that had taken just 10k and turned it into over 100k in a few weeks, well before the truth came out, up until that point however it was praise, praise and here is your own (praise) chat room DAX. Then it happened, DAX-b-gone.

When trader talked about it, then came the famous....text-b-gone, which was another of hotcomm feature we all enjoyed. Out of the blue, zap....and the text had been adjusted.

Then came the Gio-b-gone tab....and the JeanYus-b-gone tab, the Teddy-b-gone tab, Rover-b-gone, Cathy_FL-b-gone, Olmikey-b-gone, CluelessTrader-b-gone, TraderDave, RMK, Kate, Bonnie, Won, Shanti, DesertDude, R7, DrBob, Eman_CA, JoAnne, TraderDoug, BobCathy1, Jayscat, Fitzy, Blinky, Kart, Sgt. J, MoneyPenny, Dloomis, Kiwi, KenP, KenC, Hoot, Heart, Samira, TL3, Busa, tHEfED, Verus, Dharma, Kiwi, Croc, Iceman, LcL+3, Rainman, Biker_NJ, BrB, codehead, Hammer, BigCheese, Maggie, Antiicc, TW_WI, Jeanann, Ave3, Lobsterboy, WB_NJ, Spike, MarkB, Frank P., Egor, Sammy, Rocco, Janie,
Esmeralda, Donna, Nick, Vinnie, Fat Louie, Woodman, RG2JH, DrSatish, Raven358, Steve4223, Taku, DebbieDeb, Folls, Angela, David_UK, HC-ED, Soren, Edgeseeker, Fritzer, KenC, Ricky, Fitzy, Bobby, Kiwi, Fill_or_Kill, Jeff, Sally_CA, MoJo, Hanksterr, Boatguy, Viper_CA, Shane_CA and yada yada yada yada......

It appears that the website has been adjusted for the latest "OUT OF HERE-b-goner" and there is no mention of mPlay....no more no more.... All those years of helping people to get a grip on trading ....GONE. All those years of answering emails and endless quesitions from the newbies...GONE. The recording session of option trading after hours...GONE. Moderatoring to help others....GONE.

Who then is the real loser here, well it's not mPlay for sure....he is still the same person as he was last week. The real loser is the WoodiesCCIClub as so many many times in the past someone has been deleted. The good news is that mPlay has setup his own chatroom over in TradingRooms.com for those who enjoy his two cents on things.....

Thanks there Ken Wood for letting anyone get away from the cult. NO KOOLADE for mPlay anymore....:)

Minnesota Bridge collapse so a man can understand it

For Engineers:OBJECTIVES:
To identify the S.H.M. ( Simple Harmonic Motion) as a periodic, oscillatory and vibratory movement.
To visualize a body which describes an S.H.M.
To define and identify the principle physical magnitudes which intervene in an S.H.M.
To visualize and interact with the graphs which represent these magnitudes.
To visualize the relation which exists between the S.H.M. and the Uniform Circular Movement.
*Below is a simple laboratory device used to exhibit the mechanical parameters.

However, for those of us who aren't engineers, but just beer drinkin, rib chewing, chicken eatin rednecks, if you click on the picture....WELL you'll understand the principle also.....

We have come a long way from those paltalk days!!

When Mr. Lambert first wrote about the Commondity Channel Index indicator, it had two pages with mostly charts.

Then Barbara Star wrote an article on a different way to think about the indicator back in February of 1992, that is over 15 years ago now. The recent journey of the indicator has now lead us to this point........

There are 22 different things to think about now....no more batman setups just these:

An alert message bar shows at the top of the chart when the CCI line is above 200 or below -200.

Primary 14 period CCI study indicator. Plotted as a thick black line.

Fast 6 period CCI leading indicator. Plotted as a thin yellow line.

Histogram colored gray after crossing the zero line, yellow on the 5th bar, and red or blue when trending.

Make ya wonder what the next 15 years will bring........doesn't it? I hear that the WoodiesCCIClub is now talking about how they invented range bar and are the only people that understand how to use them correctly.....WOW.
