Hands Off My $SCOK

If you think they are simply going to allow you access to the fruits of laboring in the mines just by showing up for the win, then you have it all wrong my friend.  This is hard work, where men are forged in the furnaces of speculation.  While you sit comfortably at your desk wringing the sweat off your hat know this—you are nothing.  This is light work, why are you sweating so much?

Most of you fear a real day’s work.  I see it all the time.  It is nearly impossible to assemble a cement crew from my peers.  The only ones willing to work 16 hours in the summer heat are OG foreigners.  Even then there’s a 60% fail rate during initiation day.  They walk off, not even requesting pay for a days work.  If they do ask for money, I flip them a waded-up hundred from my pocket and tell them to, “Fuck off and leave the men to their work.”  Most of the time they hitch a ride to the job site which makes for an awkward pause before they walk off into the horizon.

I tell this all to you for one simple reason.  You need to wrap your head around trading and nothing more.  Your pasty hands can perform just as effectively as mine, but is your mind sharp?  It’s never too late to pick up a fine piece of literature or explore a philosophy.  I encourage both.

This SCOK position might lop off my unit and hand it to me.  That’s fine because I am the lizard king and will regrow another one trading god-only-knows what instrument.  This is risk and we rigorously plan for it, you should too.

The coal trade, all the energy trades, will be winners.  Elon will be a winner, I will be a winner, will you?

    It’s a shame that they let stuff like SCOK trade on the NASDAQ.

    Someone did that vid with that new Taylor Swift song (no homo), and it mashes up so good you’d think they were made for each other.

    I sweat my bag off each and every day for my paycheck. Each passing day no easier then the prior. Intense, physical labor where you go home at night and feel every dollar earned in the muscle tissue of your lower back.

    However, with every unbearable shift I persevere, I am saving my hard earned income. I engage risk on a daily basis to grow my savings in an plot to one day have wealth and leave my wretched day job behind.

    My job as horrible as it is, provides for me the motivation required to wrap my mind around trading, and keep myself on track with attaining my goals. For each day I frequent these halls, I leave a smarter man. Each day getting closer and closer to that light at the end of the tunnel.

    I realize this won’t happen overnight. There is yet plenty work to be done. But with every day and every battle I can feel the progress. I am forever grateful of the knowledge and wisdom bestowed upon me on this site. The minds at work are of the highest calibre, and provide a service unlike any other.

    One day, I too shall be a winner!

      I love it Steve, never hesitate to ask questions along the way. You are right, every time you come here you are investing in yourself. If understanding market behavior is a goal of yours, then you should be where people are in the future working at the exact same goal.
