I think the next time I decide to talk about shorting gold, I'll insult people's religions instead. It probably will cause less offense. I was surprised at the emails I got about my gold shorts. One guy strongly implied I was lying about my profits altogether.
I'm a chartist. I don't care what I'm trading. I have no allegiance to any industry. So you gold bugs really shouldn't get your panties in a bunch if I'm shorting precious metals.
Sheesh.
