stock market crash

Except, there wasn't. Do you not realise your mind just makes stuff up to try help an opposing opinion you have? Seriously, you should seek professional help. And I don't mean being scammed out of another $20K by a TA "guru".

If I gave you a £100k to invest, would you throw it in on one price in a single executed trade without averaging into a position?

I'd run a mile from such a strategy. You scary.

And there we go, just to prove my point. You do like building a strawman argument, don't you?

I doubt many would argue that drip-feeding into an investment is not a good strategy, but that's not the point here. You are a liar and no-one should trust any trade you say you've made.

Just accept it and move on. Perhaps buy an imaginary self-improvement book with your imaginary profits?

Yes, given the fact that if you're investing long term it has been shown to be a superior strategy.

I guess if it makes you happy those positions I've take are not profitable then that's your choice. I don't care. Whatever makes you happy.

I get the impression there are high frequency swing traders here, buy / sell every other week. That would make me a nervous wreck.

[TheGreenBastard]

Getting nervous over fictitious trades is kinda weird.

No but if you gave me £250k, I'd buy a single severely out-of-the-money short term Put option on the FTSE100 at a time when £trillions are being pumped into the economy and markets.

Again, a strawman argument. No-where have I said that I'm not happy (or otherwise) with your trades (fantasy or otherwise) - I'm merely pointing out that nothing you say can be trusted. It's probably time for me to stop and move onto something more productive - you've been shown for what you are.

You forgot to mention at a time when the bad news had already been priced in, and only good news would signifantly move the market.

I'll not be doing it again. Grandiose mistook.
