    Isn't that an instrument you went long on at 27ish? We cannot tell, because you do not post important information like WHAT THE FUCK YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT.

    I shorted 3,000,000 units at 25, and closed at 3. I am rich, because of your chart. Are YOU rich, bitch?

  7. As far as I'm concerned, no one has edge. They like to throw around that buzzword...like they have some kind of hacking code to an ATM machine, but they have nothing. They are just hoping and praying they have more positives than negatives in the end tally.

    I think some legitimate edges exist and have existed...like options traders back in the day that could exploit pricing discrepancies...but I agree with you for the most part, "edge" seems to be pretty subjective and some people are calling things like trading support and resistance as their "edge".

    Dead dead wrong,and I would prove it with my PnL for the right wager..

    You are correct that “edges” have literally vaporized over the years..

  10. The small man feels the need to wager, bet, be boastful and prideful against everyone else. Your only competitor should be against yourself.

    But out of curiosity, since you brought it up....what do you generate, on average, from the market in terms of % returns and dollar returns per day/week/month/year?
