Well, I don't think anyone has taken this seriously, which is a good sign. Sometimes you'll get people so convinced that it's possible that they wish him luck. No well wisher's here. $10k to $100k, maybe, with the right system, ahem, but not a chance with $1,000, and with options, no less. That's exactly what we call an undercapitalized trader.
I was taking my $1,000, (borrowed on credit cards) to $25,000 to get over the daytrading rule. I got it to $24,600 in 3.5 weeks, had some should be easy, low risk, slow play on some huge pharmaceutical company, (I was expecting to make like $600 I think), I probably only needed like a 1% stock move, it went to nearly 25K, then receded. I was shocked it didn't finish the expected move. I think I lost 2-4k on that trade instead of making $600. Long story short, that set off a succession of losses that brought me back to $3,500.
