Here is the thing. How many traders trade continuously for 15 or longer, with excellent track record, and are looking for either capital or employment? Very few if you can find any. Everything changes. We could be working for corporation, smaller firms, and some years for ourselves. You...

mason macgregorson Useless person. On my ignore list. Bye.

Remember all investors love "star" power. It is the fame that they are after. This is why Cathie Wood and Bill Ackman have such following. A lot other traders put on similar positions and/or had better track records. But they do not count because they do not get on Bloomberg, CNBC, Youtube...

Sure we all need. But what this has to do with Bill Ackman's fund. Just wonder.

This was a specialty hedge fund trading NYMEX spreads. Owner was a former NYMEX trader. Capital was mainly from institutions or other hedge funds.

That is fine. So if a trade is profitable and you won't do it since it is catching a falling knife? Just does not make sense. Sure enjoy your chart and brew. I enjoy my profit, not all the technical homework....

What you said is useless. Why would I disclose all the details? Point clearly made with real data. Some people at ET are very rude like this.

You guys are so funny. It is just a simple trade. Then several people came here and mentioned catching falling knife. It seems you guys know much more than I do. There are various seasons for each trade. It depends on trade size, technical signals and style of trading. Not everything is...

I did not touch either. And I did really well in 2021.

I do not know.... I only know that most traders do not catch falling knife. I do not do it normally either. But this is a level I like to do something.... It is a speculative trade that I get room to lose.

With hedge fund 2/20 fee structure, a 2.5% advantage won't make it. Remember when the return is negative, fund managers do not pay investors.

You kept responding. What is your point? What I'm saying is that Bill Ackman's historical performance is just at S&P 500 level. Yet he collected huge fees and make people think he is smart. Only fools make him a smart person.

Gaining 15% is catching falling knife? Where is the knife? I can use the gains to buy quite a few knife.... I'll be happy to catch those 15% knife.

Then what? Both times, Bill Achman looked like a fool and he failed.

Wonder what you are lacking.

I go by the data. Not a historian....

But those were down to the trash early trading day. SOXL was down like 7%.

I do not have the thick skin to get on TV to announce my HLF fraud theory. Or the legal resources to manipulate stock market. I like fund managers with really good skills to pick stocks. But not as stubborn as Cathie Wood is. She is another market manipulator. Most HF managers are like Jim...

Just wonder how many retail traders really made $$ from GME. And how many are holding the bag of expensive GME stocks at Robinhood. I think the people most benefit from the MEME trading are the company senior management and existing shareholders. Not those meme traders.

Yes, he bought like 3MM NFLX shares on the dip for about $1BB position. And he promptly announced it on Twitter. AND he made his position known. Expecting others to follow him. Market manipulation. He is a master of it. When Bill Ackman was fighting Herbalife HLF, he even paid some HLF...
