never claimed to be smarter an average investor. What I said people that short tend to be smarter than average investors. For many reasons but biggest is someone not tied to one direction has more opportunities. Buy low, sell high = make money. Sell high, buy low = make money. If one knows how to manage risk why be tied to long side only?
My last broker appears to be a fraud. Guy that owns the firm won't honor any client fund requests. He'll likely end up in jail. Happens in this biz sometimes, guess if I was with bigger firm like Ameritrade or Etrade this could have been avoidable but even bigger firms run into issues, ex PFG.
"Sounds like you're being set up... again."
Yeah I am being set-up. To work trading with no financial risk to myself.
