    Pfff.... That's nothing.
    Back in early November of 2016 I was frolicking around in the big bedroom of my trailer outside Biloxi with (at least) 4 locals that... stud that I am... had charmed out of the lounge down at the riverboat casino.
    Well things are getting hot and heavy right... I mean these birds are runnin' around the trailer butt-assed naked torching pebbles and dancing to Tobey Keith's greatest hits... when all the sudden the Lord spoke to me.

    He said "Zandy.... one word... MAGA!". Well at first I wasn't sure what he meant.... but I had been logged into ET earlier that evening and my browser was still stuck on page 437 of B1S2's "2016 ES Journal". I knew right then and there that was a sign. I went all in Fib!. $1000 in the IB account! The good lord told me to buy those Dec 2018 ES 2400 calls for a nickel apiece and by god.... who was I to question providence. A nickel!

    Well, I don't have to tell someone as savvy as yourself how the story played out. So I'm with ya 100% brother. I feel ya. No stop. I like to get paid for my work too. We need to party!
    "Cannonball! Cannonball".
    You got a pool out there?

  4. Donald Trump would say, “if I used that 4-letter word they would crucify me”

  5. Man who fights wth wife all day, gets no piece at night.

    Man with 3 wives like TheMickey, Vanzandt and Overnight got no chance - is forced to go outside the house and piss on the trees to regain territorial dominance

  6. Overnight

    Overnight

    Classic. Fibo is getting schooled and doesn't even realize it. I guess I should have shorted in 1st Q 2019. What a moron I was.

  7. Its actually true that once you "get it" trading becomes incredibly easy. Hard part for most people is to deal with the swings and emotions. But more than a decade of playing poker has hone my ability to totally remove emotions.

    In fact, I find the learning curve for poker is even higher than trading. Wonder if anyone who does both feels the same?

    All market participants are nervous right now. Any drops will be fast and furious.

  9. Sorry, I should have done the whole series in one continuous motion for continuity. ......

    It’s so difficult here because ET is Walmart. That was not intended decades ago. The intension and aspiration of all players was Buckingham Palace. But it failed miserably to the point where it’s known that 94% fail and fail consistently and return for more pounding. The successful ones are mostly just making a living barely to the very few that hammer out the original dream.

    Without further ado, behold fibo_trader at ET. .......
