These stories. I don't have one of those since I don't trade big, and I'm weary of uncovered options shorts for obvious reasons. Thanks, as always. Bulldog on prubear was a floor trader in 1998. He wanted to enter a large derivative risk free position to pocket the large risk premium right around the infamous little 75bp uncle Al cut action on LTCM day. As the stampede ensued, the bearish side of the trade executed while the bullish side never did. He blew up for more than a million and lost his job and his wife through divorce. Hates the Fed. Yes, my orders sometimes took a few minutes to fill, even without the stampede. Timing is crucial, and playing with derivatives is playing with fire. And what did I do on that day? Nothing. I did not play derivatives. Maybe already long a few gold and silver stocks. As I watched them dive, I added. As they were diving more, I added more. As KGC dropped to 30c-something, I really bot in size. Did the POS DROOY too. Chit! Paid off big time a long while later. 90s was the time when gold and gold stocks only went DOWN, and no end in sight. Gulp!!!
