You're really fifty years old?!?! You're sitting on $36,000 lifetime? What are you living on, dumpster dives?
Let me get this straight... You broke even this week.... Des handed you 25 percent of your entire one year P and L.. And hes the hack??
I know he is a good trader. I am a gambler. Thank you for the verticals comment. I have been studying them for a long time but no cigar yet. I will get there eventually. As for Sweet Bobby, I don't think you folks gave him enough credit. Just by starting this thread is a great tribute. Lot's of great things came out of it, for the rest of us.
TL;DR? 1) Bobby covered the spread I recommended he close. Earning him $1,500. He is otherwise down on the week. 2) He's worth $36K. 3) I spent that exact amount on my night-vision gear. I am teaching a intermediate-cal rifle NV-class and my kids asked me to get some gear for nighttime airsofting. IOW, I spent Bobby's entire NW on some NV-gear. Lay off the Sterno.
Credit for what, exactly? The dude is UNCH on the year and only showing a profit bc of my $1K donation to the poors.
