Good grief, is this @M.W. thing stupid enough to open its trap about me again? You'd have thought that it would learn from past experiences, but I guess masochism has its own logic.
Christ on a pogo stick... the implied compliment is very pleasant, of course, but that's ridiculous beyond all belief. I'd have had to start decades earlier to even come close to dest's knowledge, and I doubt that I could ever get to his level of skill. Not trying to dissuade any morons from whatever insane theories they've generated in the single-celled structure they use instead of a brain; just putting in the disclaimer to say that I've got no part in that nonsense. It's like comparing some hard-working, reasonably smart mathematician to Erdos. Idiots are cordially invited to GTFOH with that shit.
Anyone who has bothered to read my journal, or look at the early questions in my posting history would know that without the slightest doubt. In fact, there was a number of times when @destriero helped me out of my terminal confusion about options in those days - for which I will always be grateful. Of course, he could have faked a year-long journal of learning and confusion, to... uh, to... I guess you have to be some sort of a conspiracy-minded lamebrain to come up with a reason. I can't.
I know of someone who had their futures stop deleted just before a major move and wiped out 80% of their account, then when they tried to transfer the remaining funds out it was blocked and had to go about some convoluted way to get it out, but it's not like other brokers are much better, software isn't bad though especially the programming side creating custom algos!
