    Yes applause,
    But I sense there are many people blowing up accounts in these markets.

    I only know it is not my kind of market, and the type of market I blew up accounts in before.
     
  4. Well I made a bit of money but mostly I'm not a fan of these swings either. When volatility goes to infinity it becomes too expensive to buy both calls and puts, if you do that you'll end up losing money. It's too expensive to go directional only also since your position tomorrow is worth half the value of today although the price didn't move, just on account of volatility returning to normal. Overall it's a craps game and I hate gambling even when I come out ahead.
     
  5. Wow this is one for the record books. Trump even threw out a call in full caps at 12:43 we got lots cheering and hooting going on. This is one for the books.

    was even able to close out my hedge for an 11% return just now. What a crazy few weeks.

    This seems like insider trading he shouldn't be releasing these news items at random points when the market is open imo. Worked well for me except my Ero Copper trade hit a standing sell order before I knew that was up and then ran up another $1.40 a share afterwards.
     
  10. Another round of applause is in order
