defns 1,2,4 seem synonymous with vigorous dispute but defn 11 feels more familiar I understand... whenever I hear of setting up to EXPECT a string of winners or a million $ pot of gold with four trades I will counter in constructive fashion perhaps my biggest point of opposition is the strategy of being involved entirely with options that has no place on a thread populated by mere mortals how many times have I heard ??? "I only use options, but I dont advise this for others" then quit talking about such dangerous instruments !!! ok ok I like to sip nitroglycerine with my shnopps it kills 98% of those who dabble I dont suggest you try the same I will make my points with less perceived attack thank you for your support bear in mind that RR has perhaps 100-1000 times as much money as some survivors here he can afford the risk most cannot, and should not be subjected to temptation is it temptation or braggadocio anyway? I have nothing more to say about this tired but dangerous topic / jim

Hello Dealer, Been a lurker as of late but I must speak as I see some serious wrong interpretation going on here. I see no ATTACK by JW here and I see no ATTACK from Timetobuy. They are, as I am, questioning statements put forth that we feel could be very costly to many, if just taken at face value. There is NO ATTACK made when statements of "only 4 trades to a million" or "12 straight trades of 20%" are being questioned. Is it possible to get these returns? Yes and it is also possible we will have a colony on Mars in 10 years, but not likely. The point is that statements like that can be very dangerous to those who having been burnt over the last year and a half and see this as a desperate way to recoup losses. This could lead IMO, to further losses. Show us proof in real life, not as a theoretical. ED
