[QUOTE="FAST6191, post: 6644167, member: 32303"] Volatility is fine as a small portion of a portfolio, assuming it is "win big, lose big" or I guess "win big, lose small" if such a market exists and this is that, and if it is a thing that gives you some enjoyment then I have no objection (some seem to object to amateurs having a go as it tends to increase volatility in patterns but I don't care about that).
