    I am afraid of you yet you won't take the bet? 100x payout and 10:1!

    Theta, my ass. The only reason you didn't lose $2K this week was bc you had that stupid 5/1 bull condor running. You only covered bc I told you to do so. Nap time for you, gramps!

    So we have a bet? July 20th through October 12th. Who's running?

  4. Does you family know that you're going to use their money to fund a new 7 figure account? Don't you need daddy's permission first?

    Does Beth know that you're a senile old man who is down on the year? You've got a little something on your shirt...

    Think of what you could do with the $100K. You could buy a double-wide! Send your grandkids to high school! Buy that dairy cow you've always dreamed of!

    HTF will you not take a wager at 100:1?

  6. The differences in account sizes do not make for an equal comparison. Your account would not need to be larger than 10x my account. With a 7 figure account, you are a shoe-in to win, unless you are a complete idiot, which you may actually be!

    They are unflimed 3G+ white phosphor tubes in MUM-14 housings. State of the art. Wilcox mounts. Ballistic SL helmet. I would think your stuff is probably a 1st or 2nd gen device.

    How about I limit it to $500K? It's more than fair as you're receiving 100x. You don't know how to price delimited bets? The wager is a huge advantage offered to you on price.

    10:1 on return on cash return equates to a $360,000 account. But I m offering 100:1 odds!

  9. Are we showing every trade to everyone in here? I think we should be very transparent. If you limit the new account to $360k, you've got a deal! Let's roll!

    I suggest the following.

    Even money. $5K to the winner of the best percentage-return after 90 calendar days. You can feel free to counter with odds. I am willing to lay-odds.

    That's an advantage to you as you trade a tiny account.

    Best percentage return on account. Account number will be shown to each party on Zoom as well as daily PNL and net liq. I will post youtube video showing running-return and account number and link the videos here. I will not divulge my transactions here bc I actually value my intellectual property.

    TDAmeritrade shows a "YTD PNL" figure on the bottom right which we can use (among other PNL totals).
