Over a long timeframe, these under water trades will attract swap and other fees, increasing the losses and tying up more and more capital.
If he's lucky, they will come good, but it then becomes a gamble pure and simple.
tl;dr; Pooper is a gambler with no concept of risk reward.Comment

He's probably got some old Viceroy tulip bulbs mouldering at home that were bought on 3rd Feb 1637. He's holding those babies!Comment

I tell you something else - which resulted in my taking the course to educate myself.. when I was on here giving Stellar away for free some years ago, at that time I saw my net worth climb to multiple millions. I thought this was a one ticket, I thought the moon. How wrong I was. I did not realise I had won. When you enter mania phases of a bull cycle the psychology changes somewhat, much like we're seeing in the stock market right now. So after that time I decided to study. Months of study full time.
The returns posted are indeed real since educating myself and I feel all the calmer for it knowing there's a strategy in place."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

Got to give scooter some credit. For a troll, he's unusually adept at playing the long game.
(although his trolling reminds me of those people who only ever post their winning betting slips to their social media accounts)Comment
