I deleted my post because it was incorrect. The highest what Trump got was 7% at Intrade, which was about right. 40% would have been crazy high and a huge opportunity to make easy money.... Edit: I have to correct myself again. I was looking at the wrong chart. I was right the first time and the highest was actually 65%: http://www.intrade.com/jsp/intrade/common/c_cd.jsp?conDetailID=742129&z=1294931209000# The 7% was the winning the presidency. Anyhow, 65% of Intrade thinking that Trump would actually run just shows that you can't always rely on groupthink/Intrade, sometimes you just have to use common sense....
Let's see. You were short as of yesterday. The market closed, and overnight you somehow closed your short and became long, only to reverse course and short again, and get crushed on your latest short. Now if that is not churning, what is? smurf give it up. I used to like this journal for the laughs, but all of your contradictory BS is not funny anymore. Give it up.
Yeah, no question, I knda went on tilt with this last short. Down about 10 points.... Taking the heat for now Surf
I really don't understand how you have been trading for as long as you have and still go on tilt. What is so hard about ONLY trading when you get a signal and sitting on your hands when you don't?
I really don't understand why an anonymous alias without one shred of evidence that any thing uttered has any reality, continues to post unsubstantiated comments. Regardless, the above quote is completely ignorant of the history of trading. Many of the greats in the field have gone on tilt at times. Some blowing out giant accounts during this time. I see you consider yourself, as an anonymous alias, better than the masters who have blown out. Absolutely the height of arrogance and fear of being found out. It's quite obvious. Show evidence of your suggestions and claims or stop wasting our time on the surf report Surf
You did say you went on a tilt, so what's the matter? He just asked a valid question and you are ly... misstating that it was unsubstantiated. It wasn't. Just playing a judge on ET.
LOL, yeah I have no idea what the heck Surf is so mad about. He was the one saying he went on tilt, and now he's comparing himself to many of the 'greats'? Surf, take your signals when they come and chill out (aka sit on hands) when they don't. Don't force trades, you've been doing this long enough to know at least that, hobby trader or not.
