    Anytime someone says "zero risk" when talking about stocks I usually start running away from them as fast as I can.

    This thread should be a cautionary tale for newbs who boast of their EW vodoo, while laughing at those who use stops and believe in option pricing models..

    WXY has been caught going long in extended C waves, having drawdowns of 30 to 60 percent in almost every stock that reached his Fib levels..only to crater...

    His latest stream of unconsciousness is claiming that being in cash is a synthetic short and the equivalent of making money...

    Looks like someone had a heaping serving of humble pie..

    You still are missing out because of opportunity costs.

    This dude's brain is like Swiss Cheese full of holes.

    I'm sure somebody already brought this up but I gave up reading this silly thread, so sorry if I'm merely regurgitating.

    WTF happens to your capital if the price goes against you, Mr. Dumbass?? How is that "no risk to your capital"?
