What were those 2 better ones?

Good Question...

Back in `98.. when I was a cowboy.. was the Tops... Asian Contagion, LTCM, I was short everything my trading desk would allow me to take over night... They must have had confidence in me to allow me the size I had on... even though I was a Rookie at the time.
 
That seems to me 1 year. Unless you meant 98 and 99. Interesting you made lots of money by shorting in those years of high flying market.

`97-`98-`99 was massive Vol... locked limit down days followed by whipsaws.. Also caught MSFT & Dell Long calls in those years... more luck than skill but I always had an intuition about the markets....
`08 was the other...

How about yourself ... You seem to have a solid intuition ...what was your best year on say a dollar return vs. % basis?
 
Pure Luck to me was a quasi rookie on my desk who took home a massive Qualcomm position the night before... contrary to compliance catching it... woke up a multi millionaire when Henry Blodget , I believe, gave Qualcom a $1,000 target... up =$105 pre market... now that`s just dumb luck!

Probably a good time to put this thread and journal to bed, the shit is starting to come out of people’s ears.
