Short of sense

What in the hell?

What kinda mook doesnโ€™t put in a buy-stop order when short selling?

A mook who has no fucking clue what heโ€™s doing, thatโ€™s what kind.

I donโ€™t feel the least bit of sympathy for this guy. Heโ€™s the one on the other end of my trades whose money Iโ€™m taking. If youโ€™re going to play games like that, you better know what youโ€™re doing or youโ€™re going to be poor right quick. And Iโ€™ll have your money and be wishing you good luck on retiring to that Frigidaire box.

Sold a few stocks short. Lost very little money, made a large net gain overall. The reason is buy-stop orders.

A hard lesson, but if you are gambling understand the stakes. (This guy was gambling. What I do is not gambling.)
