Well, you don't have to worry about sarcastic, angry posts any longer, because I was finally defeated by the rallying market today. I lost absolutely everything in a series of ill-considered shorts. I should have used stops, but I was certain that that the market was going to crash. (You can go back and read my posts over the past 5 years. Every single one basically says the same thing: "The market is going to crash, but it's up today, and I'm angry.")

I've posted my short picks of the day below. When they turned against me, I tried to short them even more. One thing led to another, and after more than 350 day trades, I was ruined.

EBSI 25.6 +7.7 +43.0
SKYE 10.2 +2.2 +27.5
VIDE 8.0 +1.3 +19.4
ROYL 10.7 +1.7 +18.9
INTI 9.4 +1.2 +14.6
DNDN 6.5 +0.8 +14.0
SIRI 5.0 +0.6 +13.6
APPX 15.0 +1.8 +13.6
TRDR 6.7 +0.8 +13.6
ADPT 12.1 +1.4 +13.1

There's an odd sense of completion about the whole sordid affair. I suppose I knew all along that it would end in disaster.
