  4. 1) I see you are trying to re-write history here .I was the one that insisted on measuring percent gain or loss in the december challenge ,not you dipshit.

    What's more evidently you lost so badly you never reported those results despite myself and others asking for them numerous times.

    2) Just another stupid lie of yours, my 50% drawdown losses occured at least 8 months before our lil challenge.
    I changed my strategy at that time and am up since then.


    you 99cent are the biggest fucking joke on the net, that's why I like exposing your ineptitude and lies.

  5. What is REALLY stupid, is thinking YOU know everything about trading LOL. Traders who do it for a living, and really anyone who is trading their own roll, shouldn't worry about % return. You'll find prop traders (in my experience) recording their performance in absolute terms, like cents per share. Only traders managing or looking to manage opm concern themselves with % return.

    Also, acct size (or buying power) matters wayyy more than % gain. Know why? Cause you can make 1000% on your $1 acct and PT can make 1% on his 500k acct and he'll make 500x more $$$ than you.. and that's what trading is all about: MAKING MONEY.

    Sure, % return is the only fair measure for a contest but you should also start with the same acct size.. 'trading' a $1 acct is nothing more than mental masturbation.

  7. As long as the Fed is financing the gov't with cheap money (that the big banks get their cut of as "middlemen"), - who needs to do math? :D

  8. You look like him, look him up I'm sure you'll see the resemblance. LOL he likes to scowl just like you do. You look more like the older brother than his dad on second look.

  9. I know it must really burst your bubble, but No I didn't watch any part of the Inauguration.

    I had better things to do. I don't care to listen to any of his speeches nor am I interested in what the 1st marm is wearing .
