A calculated bet or series of bets with price determination and risk/reward fully contingent upon Event X occurring. It successfully occurs, but all positions remain in the red.
It is commonly witnessed when listening to a friend's dad talking about his investment rationale for making certain risky trades. His reasoning is always foolproof but the results are inevitably unfavorable.

A preventable Dad Trade in the making
Industry professional: Mr. Chen, I strongly urge you to hedge against your positions in Brazilian ethanol companies with some short currency futures and some put options on the underlying stock.
Mr. Chen: Don't presume to teach me about equities sonny; I have more years of investment experience than you have in years lived. If Obama gets elected, he will subsidize corn, and ethanol production profitability will skyrocket.

Get the dad fingers mug.A fart that can wipe out the whole world with one squeak, nobody knows where dads were able to get such power in their butt. it smells of eggs with raw tuna and other nuclear materials, this type of fart can last longer than Thanos lifespan. Fatherless children are safe from this serious crime, and lucky for Belle from Beauty and The Beast and Jasmine from Aladdin were able to survive and live a happily ever after

Get the Asian Dad mug.Referencing the Bill Cosby Movie. It refers to someone who is your friend but never answers emails or returns texts days or weeks later. They are your friend but no one ever see them. When you think they are gone they randomly appear or send you a text or email. when confronted they think they are always there.

Dad-gummit this should not be such a trivial meaning! It's original as the idea of religion. It simply means "I sure as hell did not want "this" immediate outcome." Shit! I mean, dad-gummit!
