  1. I could easily make 50% return on $1,000 account. I doubt anyone would be impressed.

    I'm up quite a bit. Thank you for your kind comments and understanding. Mainly, I just try to document positions and styles that work.

    Yep, making 50% on $1000 account in a couple of days is no big deal. The catch is having to use huge leverage, the same kind leverage that can put someone out of business after a small string of losses which anybody will experience.

  8. The correct term is the 2006 Bond movie "Casino Royale".
