    Great flicks...I have both versions...old one and the new one. Saw the first one in Chicago when I came home on leave to see family. Girlfriend was mad at me for a month for taking her to it...she had nightmares for a long time after that.

  2. OK. To clear things up:
    1) Destriero IS the prodigy. Ken Calhoun is NOT. I was a far better trader than him (Calhoun) in 1999, at age 22, and made FAR more money than Ken has made in his entire lifetime (whole).
    2) I was nice to Ken Calhoun, because Destriero was still a member of ET. Now Destriero is gone, so who cares. I was nice to Calhoun out of Respect to Destriero. Since Destriero is out, Ken Calhoun is fair game (his "protection" is gone)...

    So, yeah, there is a "hit" out there, fully paid ;)





    How I would have handled it:

  3. It sucks des is leaving because he’s proven he’s the real deal over the years. Eons ago he advised me against posting trades because haters would hate and not appreciate all the work involved with analysis.

    I still don't understand why you mention Ken Calhoun in this thread and then made a connection between you, Destriero and Ken Calhoun.

    Thus, seems like there's some history here at ET between you guys that I don't know about.

    By the way, in Chicago, the word we use is "Whack". Maybe its time for Baron to close this thread before someone is offended. :D

    P.S. Glad we aren't talking about Politics in Chicago. :sneaky:

    P.S.S. If @thecoder disappears from ET later...we can assume he was not banned.

  6. HAHA!

    I had a beef with Ken Calhoun a few months ago, and he had me banned like 3 times. But everything is OK now. He is not breaking any laws; I even gave him some positive pointers!

    Hard to believe, but "Goodfellas" is 30 years old.

    That said, with Destriero out, and considering my level of experience, I am out as well. Good luck to everyone!!! Signing off into the sunset...

  7. Your advice or help Ken was cool and kind! Why do you have to bail and leave this place short of two rocking traders? Over the years I came to appreciate Destriero no bs and honest views of self-proclaimed gurus and terrible option strategies made him invaluable! Don’t takeoff too, your posts breath life into Elite!

  9. I hope not, Des and Chip are great people! Chips story about the hedge fund guy was a trip and Des warned about the Whale(SoftBank) distorting option prices before Zerohedge. Two amazing traders I hope stay.

  10. I ""dated"" a Korean girl in NYC, 2010-2014, on and off. Her name was Grace, and she was the WILDEST, most INSANE of them all, in a good way. I miss Grace, A LOT...
