I followed your posts and your struggles for the last several years. You have come a long way!
I am forever stuck as a newbie, huge losses this year. Options are just way too complicated for this amateur.

Fortunately I do have past gains to cushion this year's loss.
But as Buffett said: Only when the tide goes out do you discover who's been swimming naked. I am exposed as an amateur, not elite.
