    First off, I owe you NOTHING. The magnitude of my net profits are not what is at issue here. I am sure there are people on this forum who made more over the last week, but not many.

    The entire point was that this GME situation was a very easy trade. I wanted to set the metric as absolute
    % return. I wanted to show what was possible. There was a lot of volume on the instruments I used and could have scaled up 100x without facing liquidity issues.

    My original question to all of you is why you were you sitting there bitching about GME when you should have been trading it?

  2. But you twice "exerted effort" to block out the dollar amount of your winnings. You're just a bundle of contradictions, aren't you? So misunderstood...

  4. It is certainly beginning to look that way. No one asked to see his trading records until he started bragging. I'm beginning to think that he wishes he could put that toothpaste back into the tube.

    The 9.8% and the 31.6% were returns on the total account shithead. So yes, if you wanted to buy an amount of options that was equal to your account value at $.55 and sold at $.60 then you would make that return. I am not sure that would be a viable strategy long term.

    Just think, if you bought stock XYZ at $55 and sold at $60 you would make 9%. Its really crazy how percentages work, isn't it. If you were a day trader and flipped this in an hour or two, I would say you had a pretty sweet trade. If you were a long term investor and held the stock 5 years and it didnt kick a big dividend, then it was probably pretty lousy. Even then, you might want to know what the investor's goal was.
