you don't have $100 to your name, multi-alias :D

We don't need to turn ET into the National Enquirer. Seriously, who cares??? And what has this to do with Politics and Religion? He is not a senator and he is not a clergyman/televangelist, so...

I believe a few years ago, an exchange CME? reported that something like 78% of options expired worthless, but that is from memory The "95% fail" is probably generous. Most of the rest probably breakeven, make small amounts, or were profitable short term Very few are longterm lucrative...

How long? In sim trading or do you have broker statements? Before or after commission/slippage/fees/costs? And what is your profit factor, Sharpe, drawdowns like? These are some of the questions you will be asked, and will need to address talking to others. I would suggest you contact the...

Don't be so hard on yourself :D

Umm, don't see "sponsor" next to his name Time to lock thread and block the poster!!! "The forecast was published and delivered to our subscribers in the morning." http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=177607&perpage=40&pagenumber=3

As I said, the only thing correct here is your spelling...

More likely, you are the unemployed, basement-dwelling, multi-alias cold/c-kid/Jasonn /etc etc.

You never take the historical high of something as a basis. It reached that height on sheer speculation.

About the only thing credible in your threads is your spelling. No reasonable person with money is going to go after the hook of "I will just take excess over 5%" you might as well say "I play the roulette wheel; let me use your money, and every time I hit it big, I keep anything over 5%."

Since there is no proof of the claims, the thread was a huge waste of time in the first place. Some however wish success to lemmings, hoping against hope. Pick a target with a 0.0005% chance of success (or less). Try to impress others with unsubstantiated returns. Blow up. Come back later...

Why? collecting blind opinions from the anonymous is a huge waste of time.

You should stay off hallucinogens before typing...

Not at all. This is a simplistic way to look at things, especially devoid of any proof by observing a large number of days and see if this has any truth. And you also have to overcome trading costs which already puts you at a disadvantage.

more interesting, do you think it helped, stayed the same or hurt?

humorous, when people start attacking even the accepted works as wrong, such as dictionaries. I have this person on ignore, but saw it in your response. Next, the earth will not really be round, it is just a theory foisted on the world by geologists :D

Only if you have wildly successful, and only if your stats are good (Sharpe, DD, etc.) Even then, you will likely find that most people trying this find they cannot get funded. Do some research on similar recent threads like yours, here...
