Hey no problem this thread has been pure entertainment from the get go. I remember you from the old yahoo options board too.
you guys are too hard on riskfree. if he wants to use NDX for his calls let him use it. the main complain here is that it is not clear from the his wording if he is making a call or if he is asking a question. so it would be better if his calls instead of "who is shorting?" were "I am short NDX at 1950", stop 1956, profit target 1944", or simply "I am short NDX at 1950". Also, it is not clear if the trades are close at the end of the day. also, as suggested maybe a single thread with calls would be more helpful than a new thread each day. check out the thread by this jocker Rennick who copy-pasted calls from some website. now, that is pathetic!
Shortie, From the first moment riskfree showed up here and started posting on the options board here heâs been rude, arrogant and purposely vague in his comments. As others have pointed out here, heâs generally the first to take the low road with direct personal attacks. The kicker is heâs then run to the ET monitors and requested they protect his rights to post here without the attacks of others. Most of all, like so many internet tough guys, he possesses that magical power to see into the accounts all those who disagree with him and heâs always sure theyâre losing money or are broke. Read through this thread if you have a moment. Not anywhere does a single person go on record as saying they were long or short anything specific. Yet when the market was lower he was mouthing off and accusing me specifically, of saying I was long at 1989. He was so giddy that his magical powers told him somehow that I was long, despite the fact I donât even trade the NDX index or one directly linked to it. Of course when the market turned all we heard was the crickets and no riskfree. As I said earlier in this thread I take no glee in seeing people make wrong calls or lose money, be it real or on paper. My point since riskfree has been here is that heâs nothing more then another internet arrogant who drops bombs on the anonymous here. The real shame of it is heâs clearly a bright guy and probably does have a lot to offer in the way of good discourse, too bad his ego wont let him participate like a decent person.
Go back and read some of his early rude and nasty work here on ET so you can get a better sense of who this guy is.
