That's a shame to hear. I know a few others like EricP but the market conditions has changed to the point that they only trade a few months per year since 2013. For example, they hit the month of January very aggressively because its traditionally an excellent month of volatility. One guy in particular now has a job to ensure he has health/dental benefits for his family but his goes on vacation the month of January just to trade full-time.
hey MD, tell debit you're risking me revealing the only alias that's worthy of keeping a secret if u don't stop this nonsense.
I've personally been wondering about Red_Ink_inc. Back in the 2011 P/L thread, he was still killing it to the tune of about 10k per day trading unusually active stocks with super tight stops. But then he vanished forever. Any ideas?
Was he the trader that was scalping Citigroup stock? Remember hearing somebody made 100k in a single day trading this stock! Don't know if it was true or not...many prop firm legends out there.
I'm sure he traded it once in a while, but his MO was to trade whatever was moving on any given day. One of his old blotters is on this page: http://www.elitetrader.com/et/index.php?threads/trader-p-l-2008.113193/page-211#post-1919593
