    I rarely use that word. Perhaps you should read what he wrote before weighing in. And speculating on the "because" is not wise for you to do either. There is a long term history with some of these posters and characterizing my reaction in isolation of that should be carefully considered.

    Ahh. Another well-mannered post that I should emulate. Funny how when challenged, you resort to this.

    All sincere help is gratefully accepted. I am surprised, however, that rather than giving me the benefit of the doubt about who I was referring to regarding hijacking the thread, you took is personally. I'm also surprised that some of my attempts at humor (albeit without emoticons) were so...

    Have you always considered lying an admirable trait.

    I profoundly disagree with you. Although I believe he is quite knowledgeable, I find a constant level of over the top obnoxious behavior in this thread, much of which I ignored. I think the recent escalation to be vulturistic as he perceives that I may be wounded. How you could so characterize...

    Intemperate? Ill-mannered? And here I thought English was my first language. What is ill-mannered or intemperate about asking people who have little idea how I fared in this market move, but use horror-inducing characterizations to provide us with real numbers to understand what those...

    I knew you would be the first to pass on putting up. I find it hilarious that you will tell everyone how I have "blown out" with a small market move, and demur on giving a number to your speculation. Is blown out 1%, 5%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 50%, 80%, ... What? This is my thread. Your remarks on...

    Most here who have offered speculation have said I was either wiped out or had a terrible loss. Since you all are so handy with speculation, I think all here would be interested in you adding real numbers to your words. When all those wise men trying to protect me from myself have stepped up and...

    This post is obnoxious and without any knowledge or facts of what I've done, therefore to be classified as malicious. Proud of that, are you?

    I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that you failed to read the post where I said why I was behind in posting and my schedule for updating everyone. Kindly return the favor and give me the benefit of the doubt until you KNOW something about my intentions, or what I like or anything else that...

    No, not wiped out, but humbled. I'm planning to post an update later this week with details. I posted an explanation on T2W of why I asked that it be closed.

    It always amuses me when I am advised that the truth is not always the best response no matter how inconvenient it might be. I am what I am and attempt always to be truthful. I need to evaluate the benefit to those who will learn from my mistakes and my successes and the cost in frustration...

    I think you are sure, but prefer lulz. I use my real name. My account is open under the conditions that I proffered. And the reasons for shutting down the thread are stated. Additionally, responding to trash talk to reprove things already proven eats up too much time. Many of the T2W trash...

    Your veracity is to be doubted here as with most of your posts as you have never paid off in my experience.

    If that was in the APR 11 series, that seems a bit close to the underlying with a probability of the short being touched of 64%.

    I have worked on it, on and off for about eight years. I have probably put a total of one year into it. Not necessarily 2000 hours, but a year's worth of weeks where I worked on it several hours in a given week. I began back-testing eight years ago. I did some additional back-testing in early...
