Thank you @Yowster As we always say, there are plenty of trading opportunities in both official and unofficial forums. Probably more than one can take. Just take a look how members already booked some nice gains in BKNG, and others traded GOOG for 30%+ gains. Those are just two recent examples.

I just wanted to post a thank you to all the SO members for their kind words posted in this thread and in other messages that came to me. I'd also like to thank @Kim for approaching me with this opportunity - and having the trust & confidence in me to do so. I was overwhelmed by the number of my new followers after this announcement, which reminded me of the size of the SO membership outside of those that are regular forum posters. I'll echo what Kim has always said - to get the most out of SO, don't just follow the trade postings, learn the strategies so you get to the point where you are able to analyze your own trade candidates and open your own trades. Its ok if you don't post comments/questions in the forums but try to read the trade discussions as there is a lot to learn by reading the posts. I've always tried to include rationale in my trade postings about why I think its a good setup. In addition to the official trades, I still plan on posting ideas in other forums such as Unofficial Trades (so for those new to following me, make sure you notice the difference between official trades and unofficial ones). Many hedged straddle trades that look good simply require too big of a trade allocation to fit anywhere near a 1K allocation, so these will go in unofficial trades.
