  1. No. Because the bot unloads it all if the price moves (long scalps).

    And the whole payoff chart slides to the left.

    I do not expect you to grasp things that I built in many years, but I do appreciate you banging your head on it. At least we are beginning to make sense finally :)

    OIC. So the market gaps down 5% and you lift offers at 40 vol and all is well. My God Man, your trading is pathetic.

    lol I won't respond further.

  3. Sure it's pathetic like 20% profit with 5% DD with a war going on. I should have done 2.5% DD, like we did in the real accounts with the protections.

    My fault. :)

    Now load your paper trading account with 2M and show me your results :)

    I'll load $500K in a sim-account and beat his notional performance. And my journal trades were taken in a production/real-money account. And yeah, I had a $2.4MM week.

    My last here. Stop with the clownish BS (OP).

  6. Gambling, you can also have a 10M day. Does it matter?

    We are talking about long-term consistency. Years. Always in.

    Yeah, I know. I figured the OP would then seek out your journal and see it was a real-money account. C'Mon, give the guy the chance to find out he is sinking his own boat for the sake of argument!

  9. why only 500K? Is 2M too big? Are you now sparing on paper too? Don't be stingy.

    Are you afraid there would not be enough for the bathroom too ? :)

    You heard the music. Now show us!

    There's something I don't think I asked. I may have in my previous missive to you but I forgot. But in the 300 whatever days you have been using this (to me ) complex layering strategy, have you EVER captured any of the profits off the legs you close, or are you just putting that profit money right back into another leg?
