    I took a look at his trades today, as follows. I'm not sure why on earth you think this kind of trading is worthwhile or worth emulating.

    Nitro's first series of shorts :

    More recently :

    So at 1650, his net profit / loss on his continued position ( no stated sell at any point on here ) is :

    Short 9 units at a total loss of 1652. Break even of entire trade is SPX hits 1478. Seems even doable on a fantasy level. However, making this trade with any meaningful base capital has to trigger significant margin calls. I don't trade SPX so I can't confirm this, and Nitro has never confirmed how much money he's put in ( I suspect zero ).

    Lastly, and perhaps more importantly, the opportunity cost of simply not going long the market lingers. Even if one can meet the margin, and somehow by repeatably adding to your losing position you break even, the risk you took seems large.

  5. 5k is NOTHING

    50k is NOTHING

    I show 100k in bank account, house paid off (over 350k)

    then we go to trading account(s)

    you really want to play with the big boys?

    get some real money....this is the MINIMUM.
