those are the greatest days of my life financially. sports or binary options - mavin, you're something else man... i don't even know how will i be able to ever repay you for all the good you did, do and most probably will continue to do for your fellow men. i actually do need to do anything today anymore. thirty six hundred bucks a day is enough lol. i know you hate those shows of appreciation, but i gotta do it

Congratulations!!!
I personally missed this one. Was away from my desk
But, I'm not complaining. Last week was more than satisfactory. You seriously have to consider tweeting. Mavin - you do everything right and I'm not complaining - but it would make your (I don't even call it a service since you're not asking for anything) effort much more fruitful.
Once again - Mavin, Phixer and anyone who was on this first ever signal on the thread (by, the way, will you still continue PMing or this says that the PMs are over?).
Thanks Mavin and BOL

Calm down guys. You already know that too much celebrations lead to negative focus. Stay focused. Nothing changed  - PMs or posting - result is just a same. So, I won't be counting our record through PMs and will start with this one here as it was a first signal here.

1-0    +360$  (Oil)

(Phixer - you can count yours as 3600$. Before you started to increase your stakes - I was sure 1000$ is the max - but you're bending the rules everywhere you one crazy mother)

I'm a noob, trying to understand :

What's the + 390 ? You don't loose 500 $ when you're wrong, but just 110 $ in this case ?

Thanks for your help.

he made 3 trades. first one i was with him, second and third i did not catch up as i was busy figuring my trades. what i understand is that he won twice. first one with me and another one with 78-79% which would explain +390. it also can be when you lose in optionrally (happily i only lost last week twice and won many more) they do not take the whole sum since it is not them against you but the sum they traded for you in a better percentage and that way some of your losses are reimbursed. i love those guys for that.

This was a long expiry
3-1
+3900$
I'm calling it a day as even for me it was a way successful Monday.
I invested 6500$ (500+500+500+5000) and had returns of 860+0+890+8650=10400$

You are seriously wagering 5k on ultra short term options?

Just a terrible idea..I hope you keep at it but for sure the shorter the duration the greater the house vig and the higher the chance you will bust out.

That's your opinion and I can tell you that you either never traded options or simply think and operate in different scale than I do. I am doing this for more than a year and will gladly share my portfolio with you so you can understand better the strategies I employ and I'm sure you'll become more of a supporter than a critic without a real cause. I mean that about portfolio.
Another question? Why would you want me to go bust? I was under impression that you're one of the better people on covers and wishing fellow man to go bust is either a metaphorical expression describing your discontent with binary options or a simple ignorance. I'll be glad to hear your educated answer on that.

After rereading your comment - you can strike out my last comment as I understand you simply are worried I will go bust and not wishing it. My bad. Apologies

I consider myself a specialist on what you call a trading short term options. The tools for analysis I use have proven to be very effective. As a token of my appreciation of what you've been doing on Covers for a long time - I'm ready to get on with you on skype sessions and discuss it thoroughly. Just PM me as I know you have a mod access.
