    Need to lose 20lbs in 6 weeks...

    i'm not surprised. his 'hedging' technique of rolling out the option to further months only works if volatility eventually declines, but if things get worse and worse like the last few weeks, this method will result in account destruction. which it did. if things turn against you there is...
