The Absolute Worst Call on ET - Simply Bad

Quote from frank grimes:

Yeah, i'm sure the guys in the pit fear day...Not because of his trading ability...he is crazy, and he likes to write fiction, so i'm sure he has penned a letter or 500 to chicago! He also may have been on vacation with his parents where he might have done some stalking!

But he had a 65 page thread on how he routinely forced them to give him fills
 
I think they delted it. As usual with his threads it turned into a running argument. No matter how many times people posted the actual rules right from the CBOE page he screamed he was right.

You missed a very entertaining thread
 
The index was and still is a huge success

The idea behind it was to pick momo growth stocks and hold them to prove that you can beat the market and so for it has crushed it.
 
I'm not going to knock a guy without him present but since he has pooped on a number of my threads with his idiot calls. If you want to be stock_trad3r, then go open a paper and take the favorite stocks of any Index and push print. then wager no money and claim to be ahead... For those of us up to our chins in stress and with many folks counting on us not to screw up and always using our own money where our mouth is... it's very disheartening to read prattle about the 4 Horsemen again... They are original thoughts out there, this kid doesn't have em'.

Quote from Port1385:

On 10/29/2007, stock_trad3r made the following quote on VMW which had traded around 125. Then after a few panic selloffs and waterfall selloffs, the stock finally rests at 55 dollars today and traded as low as the 40s.
No, this one is worse. On 11/15/07, atticus made the following quote on BSC:
Quote from atticus:

I use a stat-query engine for raw-analysis and then take my shots based upon discretion. Some tape-reading models are applied. The model is fairly accurate, but I've been ignoring the vol-model which would have me reduce size. I went long BSC at 99.55 today.

Worst call in the history of bad calls; blown-out by 426 handles:

To add insult to injury, he sold naked index calls and is confused as to the asymmetry of risk:

Not to mention that Bob/James talked a bunch of shit to Atty and then when he got his card pulled, backed down publicly to a sparring challenge in NYC. That was another bad call I'd have to say.

He may have avoided a physical ass whipping, but his pride sure took it on the nose.
