  1. Your days of obliterating the charts are done and gone.

    Either you join us and make money or get smoked out and beat up in a tizzy ball. According to Dan Zanger " Biggest money is made going long".

  3. really? Do you also believe that the maximum return on a short position is 100%? If you do, you are obsolutely wrong.

  4. who is Dan Zanger? I did not recall seeing her name in Forbes. So she is nothing with respect to giving advice, or almost.

  5. I can assure you there is NO SUCH THING as unlimited risk in trading or investing.

  6. how about the max return on a short position? Could it be more than 100%? Now we will differentiate the chaffe from the wheat (this is not against you HolyGrail. I know some people here say that they trade and all of that, and I want to give a test to see who pass the bar).

  7. I've never really thought about it. I can see how you can have a greater than 100% return with multiple entries, but I cannot fathom how you can have a greater than 100% return on one short entry and one exit. Enlighten me.

  8. what you asked is the easiest part. If you short a $100 stock, you make 200% if it goes to zero. Reason: you only put $50 cash on the side. There are many tricks. I will just stop and say, they exist. But you are a thinker.
