OMG, i had to go back to june 2009 in order 2 find that entry:<br /><br />15.06.2009 ~ orange juice ~ $79.5<br /><br />i guess tomorrow will my next o-juice contract say bye-bye, jaro, thats was with us, i have 2 go ... why? well, the next sell-limit order waits @ 145.2 .... hmmm, the corresponding buy order? <br /><br />09.06.2009 ~ orange juice ~ $86.4<br /><br />folks, pls dont laugh too loud abt me, i call that TRADING, u know? a stress-free trading despite a leverage of 33.3 (i.e. 3% margin), of course <br /><br />lessons learned:<br />#1: dont be a stupid idiot next time! buy 1,000 damned contracts instead of one if the price is sooooo freaking low!<br /><br />#2: dont bother & blame yourself calculating any profit/loss as u will never ever find out the roll-over-costs of the corresponding contango-quoted orange juice futures contracts + the corresponding usd/eur exchange rates + put that puzzle together + get any result, so what?<br /><br />#3: try to remember #1 as long as possible :-)<br /><br /><br />ps: i swear all the time abt collapsed natural gas price (current quote = $4.27), but look in the original blog post => i got that damned gas fair below $4 ... but there are the stupid contango-rolling-costs every month, of course ....<br /><br />i hate trADING!
