Gotta love ZERO RISK in the SP500 = $$$

I'm not wrong though. Again. Do I really have to explain this to you ? I have made large returns the last 2-3 weeks on my long positions. WTI is over $78, you wanted to short it at $62. Nat Gas is at a 12 year high and you were shorting it. It's comical you think you're "right" yet I'm making the kind of returns you wish to make if your calls work out in he future. I could quote a few stocks I owned or traded and if you were in any one of them in size you'd likely have made more money then all of your trades combined since September 1st. So what are you winning ?

And to be clear, I have had more money in some of them then you have in inverses now. No need to "scale in" at some future point in time I already made my moves and cashed in some winners along the way.

Perspective. Get some.

You seem to be smart, and many of your points make sense. Correct re perspective.

Your criticisms are often valid, and if anything they, like ddog's comments, can help me improve. So far that I do thank you. I'm working on improving myself and my trading, thoughtful dialogue goes a long way.
 
I'm not wrong though. Show me one statement on this site the last few months I was wrong on. I have made no calls on US indexes other then a forecast that we finish higher then here end of year. And I'm not trading on that call I'm playing sector plays the main one has been extremely profitable the last month plus.

WTI is over $78, you wanted to short it at $62.

What you are saying is just a function of the few calls that you have made, and the lack of an objective method to measure your calls. On the other hand, others that you have inflamed have repeatedly made many calls. Yes, many of which are incorrect, but some also correct. If they are a fade, go ahead and fade. No need to chill free speech, because many of us do make a living fading the calls :sneaky::finger::D

An investor should only care about IR and not just how "correct" he is.
If you make zero calls, BR=0 and you have no edge either.
If you make many calls, you don't need to be right often. IC can be 1% but if BR=365, it can work out just as well as if you are 100% correct but only make one call a year BR=1.

I suppose the lesson here is you prefer the onslaught of mostly bad calls from the permabears on here to the more insightful calls I've made. And yes, they can be measured. Tell me something, did Ken's call premarket when SPX futures were I believe -1.3% help you trade today or was it overdone noise with no real point to it ?

What is your call right now? Go long stocks until end of year?
