it can be done though. there are lots of professional firms that spend loads of money for options contracts to make a very small spread. They just trade A LOT to compensate for them spending a shit load of $ to make a few cents.
So you went from spouting gibberish about some fantasy correlation hedge to an argument about market-making?
Six percent in 08 with all that volatility and broken correlations?
You beat that in the first month of 2008 if I do recall. And everything you do is scalable.
Telling a chick at the bar that you trade triangular arbitrage is a surefire way to NOT to get her to sleep with you. It might work at Hydrate or Sidetrack though.

No, it's a pure-arb if held to term. The point was simply that they probably held gearing of 200x to arrive at a 6% net-return, and the fools on this forum are experts.

Ah, must be held to term.
200x for 6%?! How could they sleep at night? I can barely keep my cortisol levels at bay with 100x for 5 minutes.
