  5. Thank you Dave. I got the news of your departure when I was on vacation and I was very upset. But now very glad to see that you are still with us and still guiding us through all the noise.

  6. Tony, I think a number of students probably felt the same way. BUT I feel Dave is more free now to do any type of strategy on any given day as opposed to having do a "stock trade on Wed/Thurs" or "advanced options on Wed" to match the trading room schedule. A blessing in disguise.....

  7. Excellent presentation on "weight of the evidence" and "thinking like a master chess player." Thank you for being the "voice of reason" when it comes to communicating about the market.
