    This is the first I've looked at this thread in ages. Am I reading right that for the latest effort Baz took out (or used money from) a loan of thousands of pounds?

    No. While the bot was running, I also took out a bank loan to part-pay for a car. My initial investment was money from my savings.

    The bot lost everything, I repaid everyone what I said I would, and everyone's moved on.

    I still think the bot is workable. It just needs a fairweather economy.

    You should give it another go when all this shite is over.

    Can’t believe people let you pay them back. Gimps.

    Wait, Baz paid people back out of his own pocket? Yeah, pretty low to be accepting that.

    For a few months during uni, me and my mate spent an hour or so a week watching random American horseraces on bet365 and betting £0.20-£2 based on their names and shit. I genuinely think we'd be as likely to make our millions having you all give me £100 each and having me and my mate doing the same thing on a higher scale.

    I would be interested to know what Mellin made for himself. It seems like he merely had the balls/disposable cash to ride the no-brainer pandemic waves, which deluded him into thinking he could chuck his job and beat the system at other times; but then if he was seriously contemplating chucking his job he must have pocketed a decent amount beforehand.

    I don't remember ever seeing a single screenshot of a trade Mellin made.

    He's probably doing a message board tour like a travelling tonic salesman.

    Smaller accounts are difficult and you have to blast through levels and basically lay the whole account down to get anywhere, so there's always a risk. 25-50k is the sweet spot I think. You can play it differently. The big one is definitely doable and if we'd started in May 2020 rather than a big fuck off bear market we might have. Also I would've happily shorted the fuck out of that crypto ponzi for 2 months at 125%, so shame Binance locked the UK leverage account out. But we didn't, so fuck it.

    I'm obviously not going again. It is exhausting trading that close to the edge and I'm focusing earning a living on my other account (more capital, slower pace), plus I think losing other people's money twice is more than enough.

    So yeah, soz. 10 mil from 5k was a big ask, but I do wish we'd done it at a better time. We'd have cleared targets quicker and far less exposure to getting shagged. Ruthless environment at the min.
    It's been a year lad grow up.

    They might not have ran the broadband to his island yet.
