I think the more important number for me to see is how much money he injected into the stock market, ever. Not how much he lost from the peak or...
Has any broker ever done 1:1 margin to notional value for CME index futures? That will take out a lot of traders. Bet many who swing 10 contracts...
I think you're too bothered with what the financial media says and what you think the dumb money retail must be doing (which you associate as a...
Obviously. Why ever entertain obvious trolls? Next he might start a thread telling us he lost $5M on XIV.
Well, I think it bottoms at 600. Watch out below, cause it's going under it. Actually a lot of people, including analyst notes to banking...
