Okay, let's take a microscope to this:

Today, at 2:42 p.m. you boasted that you had shorted AMZN.

Message 24526302

You didn't specify price but chart shows a price of about 80.5 at the time. And, anyway, you don't post anything but real time trades, right?

Zim the Amazing amazingly and with a stroke of sheer genius while navigating the corners of the market like an expert Formula One driver, a veritable Jackie Stewart of finance, covered the short trade a few hours later at 75.1, i.e., at a loss of more than $5 per share.

But it gets even curiouser and curiouser because the daily AMZN chart simply does not show that it was possible to trade it today at 75.1. The lowest price at which you could have covered today was the high 78s. If this is correct, then your losses were not more than $5 a share but more like $3 per share, your best case.

Congratulations, you amazing Emerson Fittipaldi of the stock market.

Of course, like any boring garden variety plain vanilla clinically insane narcissist, Amazing Fittipaldi Zim, you are going to lie about this. Nonetheless, don't you think you ought to do a better job of it? These whoppers are too easy to puncture. Took me about 20 seconds to see through the latest pack of lies.
