That's what I thought. Going with the DDR.

I'm shopping for a new computer to trade from and learning alot along the way. As far as desktop memory goes; I know the PC1066 RDRAM is better than the PC2700 DDRAM, but you can get 1024mb of DDRAM for the same price as 512mb RDRAM. I'm mostly using this for daytrading on two monitors. I know...

Don posted in Dec. 2002: "My "boot campers" are doing pretty well, and most have progressed to the 1000-2500 share level for the openings. " So many of his traders in training do trade 1,000 or more shares. Sorry, but I was there (at boot camp) and at most of the boot campers tried 1k...

$1.11 is all my profit added together, about .18 avg. on the five winners.

6 long, 1 short. Only one loser. +1.11

9 fills, 2 long, 7 short. 7 winners 2 losers (SBC, HD) +.59 After Tuesdays lousy open I was worried about the same thing happening today so I used a 2% envelope

1% envelope 13 fills , 8 short 5 longs. 9 losers, 4 winners Lost about 1.60. PG (long) just killed me. Dropped .90 right after the open but I hung on until it broke the lows and I ended up losing 1.25 on that stock alone:mad: Only 2 of my longs made me any money, but one of them, ATH...

4 fills (all long) all winners. I was concerened about this morning and took my profits pretty quick. I did OK, +.57, but my concerns lead me to get out of my positions earlier than I normally would have. Left about $2 on the table.

:mad: What really made me mad this morning is the longs I hung on to when the S&P's started going up went the wrong way. I had dumped almost all of my shorts and as the SPU's rallied KO, PG, DOW, and JNJ went south. What's up with that:confused:

Adjusted my envelope to 1.25 on the sell and 1.0 on the buy. I had 18 fills, 7 long 11 short. My screen was green for about 10 seconds and then it went red and never came back. Big losers were S, JNJ, JPM, PG, KO. 6 winners and 12 losers. Avg winner .29 Avg. loser .34 Once again...

What did you make 2 and 4 dollars on???

I used .85 on the buy and sell side. Had 19 fills ( too many) and was about split on longs and shorts. 11 losers and 8 winners. Avg winner +.25 Avg. loser +.27

3 fills, all long, MER, TXN, C. could've "sling shot" them all for .20 but I waited a while -.05 MER +.10 TXN +.30 C Used 1.4 on the sell and 1.5 on the buy side. Hey Tony, those are some ugly losses. I've completely given up on "waiting" for the come back. If I'm down .20-.25 I...

12 longs, 5 shorts. 12 winners, 6 losers. Avg winner .23 avg loser .13 Envelope was .85 buy and 1.25 sell.
