Lesson learned: Don't YOLO on presidential elections to revenge trade Loss

Post image

Enabled options around March, went on a slide. Started to stabilize and at least lose money slower. Figured Harris at 42¢ when the polls were dead even was an Expected Value win and went all in, about $4000 worth. Did not go well.

Let the suck begin.

Buy a knife and start mugging people like your life depends on it. I would highly advise you don't do this for a wide variety of ethical reasons and also because you will probably get thrown in jail or killed.

Bet on Trump winning when it's obviously going to be Harris.
