He was sometimes absent for several hours, and now and then for whole days, making his excuses, eating his gummies and appointing presiding officers to take his place. But whenever he was present, the best stock picks were made. 68 Consecutive winning trades is a feat not likely to be achieved again but the public games are here and anything is possible. “I declare open the Public Games of Elite Trader.-"
