BTW, how would he get to - $ 15,936.36 WITHOUT commissions included (ES @ 12.50 per tick)?
Quote from startraitor:
It should be ($15,946) without commissions short 67 from 1222.74. That is just a fluke in how the demo averages and accounts for the position. Now if he had 67 short, even at a very low rate like $1.50 side, his p/l would need to be down at least $100 based on his position.
Ask yourself, which is harder to believe versus which is more fun to believe?
Quote from stock piker:
Right, the $15,946 is the proof that it's demo. The op is on the record stating it's real, and it simply cannot be, so I think it's time to close this BS thread.
Quote from jjf:
I recall a thread concerning the application of stops.
The posts fell into two groups ... pussies and heroes.
Pussies enter mechanical stops and heroes use mental stops.
Our OP is a hero, no doubt about it.
And all the more so because he is short and the Fed is long.
Perhaps he will get a spike down and cover and then again perhaps price will advance further after a brief retreat following the rth open, leaving his mental stop untouched.
Then again perhaps he will limit the damage and cover with a MO around 27.25 only to watch price tumble to 1200 or beyond.
