I'm serious. Short or long, artificial and arbitrary or not, if I don't make at least a cool million, I will have failed. I had 6 months to figure the market out. Now comes the true test.
I want to make 5 million in the next 10 years...I have failed three times...this is the forth attempt...my time is running out Its not about me though..i need 5 mil for retirement...and i do not care if someone writes me out a check...I will take it and retire...
The amount of capital I am willing to dedicate, both in long and short positions, into the equities' markets will necessitate that I achieve a near 100% return this year. It sounds unlikely, but I prefer to think of it as 10% per month. It makes it easier for me to tackle that way. It seems much less daunting to achieve 10% gains per month than 100% for the year.
Two bulls were sitting on the high meadow and the young bull said to his father; "Hey dad, lets run down there and screw one of those cows". His father turned to him and said... "Son, lets just walk down there and screw them all."
