Well if the listener or a reader is able to read and listen with no ulterior motives and with full attention then it would arrive at the correct conclusion that the communicator has intended to disseminate. If everything that the communicator has stated are all true then how can a false conclusion be reached? If the communicator has stated "the sky is blue" how can the listener or the reader reach the false conclusion "the sky is red"? There is only one explanation and one explanation only: It's because the listener or the reader, the receiver of the communication is intentionally distorting and misinterpreting what the communicator is saying or writing for the intention of usually trying to discredit the communicator and at the same time to elevate its own authority. You are just trying to win an argument as a troll as what you do in every single thread. Everybody can see that. I don't need to misquote an expert like you to show it. you just created another thread for this same point. https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/lies.374448/ It will be reported to the mod as a duplicate thread.
It would speak better of you if you had said I have already reported you to the mod. In any case be my guest. Please send me a copy.
I thought about trying to do that, but I figured I'd get the wrong answer in a margin account, even if I hit (I think it's an option) "cash" in the dropdown order menu...I'm not sure if I would get the correct answer... and heaven forbid I said I did it in a margin account... I would have just given this little peon twerp more 2nd grade fodder to post directed at me while he boldly stands behind his little chicken-sh^t block/unblock tricks. But that answers that. So yes, it would appear that can happen in a cash account. Lucky for me I guess, it has never been a dragon I had to slay, but T+1 settlement rules at the time looked like a reasonable explanation, and again, I was trying to help before lamb-chops here got all insecure and went nasty 3 or 4 posts into the thread. And @zdreg, no one here was "lying". I'm not sure if that subsequent thread you started included me, but I tried to help. Pretty sure @TheDawn was too. Or maybe he tried in the past and got the same thing I got. But saying someone was lying, (which @earth-imp repeated 1/2 dozen times in his little second grade rants) implies they had some type of motivation for deceit. Now ask yourself, why in the f would anyone have motivation to intentionally "lie" to this person? I mean that makes ZERO sense. What would they have to gain? Misleading some foreign young dork that thinks he knows everything about options while trading a cash account that is probably less than $1000?! Yeah, we better "lie" to him. So whatever. I will take one last fun shot The Imp before I leave this thread however, since he did his little "LOL ...blah blah blah in response to my query about HIS usage of the word "premium". He somehow parlayed my misunderstanding... I guess there are actually people that would would buy a $4 put on a $0.20 stock that probably takes 50M shares to move it 2 cents in a day... I mean if making $3 TOTAL before $1.30 round trip commission is one's goal... well I never knew. But since he decided to look at that as an opportunity to drop from 3rd grade level down to second... allow me one last parting dig... Earth Imperator quote: "Yes, even multiple open orders, but all were limit orders." As opposed to what you idiot? Open "market orders" in the middle of the trading day? See there>>> we can drop down to second grade when need be too. "But they were limit orders" Now that is "priceless"
Bottom line is that you can't admit in one clear sentence you're were wrong. It speaks to your character.
I just did. I told BRK good job and gave him a like. BEFORE your post here. Here... I was wrong about settled cash only being applied after T+1. Happy? As I wrote above, I was genuinely trying to find an answer to his problem. It's not my fault he turned into an immature little baby that's not worldly enough to realize people aren't out to get him. Now... here's another bottom line. You missed the point. So don't get all pissy because your "lying" thesis is stupid and was an unnecessary post that no one knows wtf your are talking about and I politely pointed out that no one here was trying to intentionally deceive our little boy trader. You're not smart enough to grasp that? No offense. Have you ever seen the internet thing "TLDR"? Its like wtf is this post even about? The one you started the new thread with.
Your latest post exposes once more what you are made of. Again you have not made a mea culpa in one sentence without adding baggage of additional verbiage.
Apparently someone can't take criticism very well. Your thread was stupid dude. My opinion. It made no sense. I mean its interesting in its nature, but it doesn't apply as a spin-off to this thread at all. No one tried to "lie" to anyone. You can't see that? Whatever.
Sooo...you can't read? You didn't see the like I gave BKR? I'm sure he can time stamp it for us Way before my post. What part of the above did you miss? Case closed.
