@Blisted3 @joshdthompson@ChrisJBakke People have these incorrect ideas about shorting and how it works.
Technically, if the stock drops low enough, you can make very large percentage gains. Of course, it's rare. (Just like it's rare to by a stock at $0.10 and have it go to $200).
@Blisted3 @joshdthompson@ChrisJBakke It has nothing to do with leverage.
If you buy a stock at $1 and it goes to $100, you have made 100x profit.
If you sell a stock short at $100 and cover your short at $1, you have made 100x profit.
It's exactly the same thing. The process is just flipped.
@joshdthompson@ChrisJBakke I don't know what you were trying to write ("in 100% of it goes to $0?") but you can make huge money on a short.
Look at the guy who shorted LUNA at $25, and then covered his short at $0.00035
He made 75,000x his original short investment.
Depends how low it goes.
@KaplanBen_Fr Bullshit. Who is he to dictate what the three choices boil down to? There are dozens more options, and he doesn't ever rationalize his explanation. Just spits it out, as if he's an authority. He's just trying to make his motives sound better. Scam artist.
@chigrl Is that English? Because I actually am not sure what you're saying. You have zero invested in your account THAT THEY...? That isn't English. Can you use punctuation to clarify?
@FrankRGardner Please be the opposite of embarrassed. I'm not disabled, and I don't actually interact too frequently with people who are, recently.
But this is appalling and you have my every sympathy, and good for you for getting the word out. Well done.
We have the ability for so much more
@KristianKWalker @tahini@VitalikButerin Where's the evidence that you brushed your teeth this morning?
Where's the evidence that a cop punched a civilian if there were no witnesses?
I can't believe it's 2022 and people still ask for "proof", as if there's an intrepid reporter breaking into ultra-secure mansions. 🙄
@KristianKWalker @tahini@VitalikButerin Why do you think there's evidence lying around? Do you think they write stuff in diaries, and then leave it in a café by accident??
Where is the "evidence" of 80% of cartel crimes? Or mafia?
It's secret and undocumented. That's why it works. Wake up. Seriously.
@shanmeltzer You completely faked it and turned your head the wrong way. If it does work, people turn their heads in the opposite direction of the curved part of the hanger.
Nice try, but your fake life is pretty sad.
@rubiconcapital_ Deep OOTM puts is a pretty crappy way to play any trade, especially a company like this that just buys its way out of media coverage. Pretty low-probability bet. I hope you have better plays.
@GrassrootsJill@loffredojeremy For a "Grass roots" type of media, you certainly haven't dug at all below the top surface of the lawn.
Do you just pick selected AP stories, and then repeat them with zero analysis?
Have you bothered researching ANY of the new data??
@NAESKRA@nflrums Yeah. You're in touch with the full world experience.
Wake up and see that your range of possibilities is blown apart by lack of insight.
@jimmyjam4545@lawyersaregreat@nflrums I'll say, okay, yes, *most probably*. But also... there is no ABSOLUTE RULE that some does something else to MAKE SOMEONE cry. Sometimes people make themselves cry. Just making sure people see the perspective here.
