I have really missed the videos. Everyone at the Investor's Conference that I have told about this Blog has been very excited. I hope the deletion of the videos is temporary.

Dave I have been learning a lot from your videos. A little deeper look into hedging at some point would be highly appreciated as getting in and out of wedges at the right time is critical as your protection can easily become a problem if not handled wisely.
Looking forward to that on some of your videos.
Thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge
