Ever Blow Up Your Account?

P

I was wondering how high ET trades accounts have gotton before you blew it up to zero, or close to it...I'm a little fish, I think I had it up to about 11k then to zero, but I've had to add to my account too many times...

From ____ to _____?
 
$100,000 to -$24,000 once.. in a series of highly speculative futures trades.

I'm the biggest loser I know.. !!!

Just like Jordan has missed most last minute shots, I too have lost the most amount of money trading.
 
5,000 to 3,100 when I first started. After that I got up to 15,000, than I was down to like 5,500 again. That was Eons ago.
 
25,500 to 25k add 500...25,500 to 25k add 500.....etc...Trying to remember how that movie ended. Groundhog Day.
 
No, never blow up an account myself. However, I once got an account blown up by the clearing firm going bust - wiped out about 65% of the account equity. Luckily I was dirt poor at the time so it was not a huge amount of cash.
 
Have not heard of any clearing firms going bust and customers with funds in segregated accounts losing their money .
How long ago was it ?
