Quote from efficiency:
1. Payout? Maximum potential nominal gain, 100%. A one bagger. Wouldn't be overnight. It's the same 100% from $50 to 0 or $20 to 0. Problem is, $50 to $20 has already occurred. And, ask any real short seller about the "last buck".
2.. Yes, there is the CBOE. A whole new den of thieves. And at the dictate of the NYSE specialist in CFC. His sandbox. $15 to $20 in 3 hours demonstrates he can ruin your day.
3. You might consider watching a little less TV and study the mechanics of price movement a little more. Just a passing thought.
4. There is always someone on the OTHER side. Every tick. IF you know of a restaurant that serves free lunch, please let me know.
