KISS was right

His EXPE poots went into the money twice from what I remember.

I don't know what trader would play a heavy gamble like poots on a jammed stock like EXPE going into expire week.

I do sometimes do similar tricks as a pure gamble for pleasure. A sporting event if you like. So, it's regarded as an expense. I would only play enough contracts for the cost of an evening out or whatever.

KIS's statement like "free money" etc you can hear in any betting shop full of losers.

I would have sold 2/3rd of the contracts when they went into the money first time at least. Maybe all of them.

He could have dinged it twice and shown some real class as a punter.

Doubling up on mistakes is a NO NO.

Maybe KIS will get it right next time -g-
