While the opponent is giving time for you to lose.

Don't lose the farm.
Imho, if you must make a big bet, then bet with gains to be recognized in the current year. Don't bet big with your "principal."

SURE RISK ALL THE FARM , its his money- that is if he has 20 farms. he may or may not want to risk one of 20 farms.LOL Really'' respect risk'' as they say in Jack Schwager top traders; not respecting risk is real educational- but exspensive!! LOL

Gold seems to be trying to find a floor after months of ranging. In fact, monthly chart points to an upward breakout in Gold, all depends IMHO whether we break though Naz ATH or retrace.

Why not "bet the farm" and short gold? That sounds like more fun.

if you had 20 farms of same size, then risking 1 is 5%. The expression 'Betting the farm' doesn't seem appropriate anymore !
