    $50K invested in 2009 = $10B in 2014

    palawan & arbs - Great points. Did not even think of the liquidity. No way to accumulate that kind of size with the float in 2009 and even if you hypothetically could have; there would have been a massive move to the upside. So I should have just titled the thread. $26 invested in 2009 =...

    $50K invested in 2009 = $10B in 2014

    Right. Thanks for pointing that out. The data/price as of that article is now very stale. However my calculation based on the $50K was with a little better current pricing assumed in the $1050 range per BTC around the recent highs. At $800 BTC that $50K would be around $7.5B. But its...

    $50K invested in 2009 = $10B in 2014

    I was just reading an article about the chap who bought $26 worth of bitcoin in 2009 and completely forgot about his virtual wallet. A few months ago, it was worth nearly $900K. So for entertainment purposes I calculated what a $50K investment would look like. Kind of blows away MSFT, DELL...

    GOOG - Earnings this Thursday - Buy OTM weekly calls on Thursday

    Could not make it in time for the close. Man I hope you made some serious coin on this. Great analysis and spot on. The straddle was a no-brainer buy today. Might end up being a 2 bagger.

    Nothing can stop this bull market?

    Uncanny call. Twitter IPO on the way now to boot. Hopefully you made a serious amount of coin on your vision, because in the end, that is all which matters most.

    Problem with windows security updates

    Logistically that is not something I can do. Also I am not sure if it came with a ROM copy of XP because the laptop has no internal drive and only has two USB ports. I have never had something like this happen to me on a fresh install. Strange. So with said, is it even plausible to try to...

    Yen strength

    Is anyone seriously looking to go long USD/JPY? I missed an entry point this AM at around 95.85ish just for a scalp though. Be interesting to see if it churns now in the mid 96's or if it just takes another leg down on new lows. At some point soon there will be a strong reversal and an...

    USD/JPY

    So anyone put on any new trades lately? Looks like that short really worked out with a little patience. Gold taking a nice little reversal today while the USD/JPY makes new intraday lows. I am looking to get long here very soon for a scalp and possibly more if I can time it correctly.

    USD/JPY

    Wow quite a swift move from yesterday's outlook on the buy side. Best wishes on that short rroverx. Wish I would have had time late yesterday. Was thinking about stepping in at the mid 99's handle. Oh well. We will chop around today. Next stop 101 or back under 100.

    Top prop firm to top MBA?

    The two most important factors on whether you get into a Wharton type program is your GMAT score and your grades. If you are doing something incredible right now, professionally speaking, that could hold some weight. I am sure there are always exceptions or someone has a story about someone...
