This was I similar trade I had taken a few days ago with RIMM. That trade was a mess. I used the advice given from the previous posts and avoided a slaughter house this time. Nice and clean; small commissions, big profits. Thanks guys. NB: I have also started utilizing the 5-min chart and...

12/27: First off, I need to correct a boo-boo that I made on 12/22. I think in the excitement of having a couple of good trades, I made my - button disappear. I added EVERYTHING!!!. So the reality is a little bleak as seen by the amendment below: Total (+/-): $24.12...

Yes and no. I was trading using the 1-min chart., but very quickly realized that it's very taxing mentally. If i am making this a career, than it won't work. However, I am not against the 1-min chart and see a lot of advantage to it. For e.g. when I am entering a trade with a lot of...

Hey Kon., I feel the pain brother. I use Fidelity, but will be changing to IB or Lightspeed. The other day I traded 6 stocks and paid ~$100 in commission. That was meant to be my profit!!!. I went home with $10 :confused: . So is the life of a trader ( that wouldn't cover a pizza from Pizza...

My bad, not pg 9. This is it, above here.

Ok, so it's that time of the year when I get to be Mr. Nice Guy. I'll keep it short; here are the dues. 4re: A special thanks to you for being so personal in your approach and showing genuine care in educating others. Karma, my friend, will rub you very well!!! NoDoji: I have followed you...

Hey, I don't have any money to give you :p. On a serious note, thanks for the kind words. The feeling is mutual. The dogs have been let out!. There's no looking back now. DO OR DIE!.

I trust your judgement here and will follow through. Nice move 4re

Hi Dave, you were right. It wasn't to hard to find (and some more). Looking at the reviews and your material, it seems like you ARE Mr. Mountain Dew himself and The Dogs Bollocks put together. Real impressive stuff. I will be taking time to look at your material and thanks for posting...

Arms and ammunition paired, ear and eye protection on, safety unlocked, finger on trigger, target confirmed and ready to........, ........., .....dum, dudum, dudum, dudum.............GUESS THE MARKET ISN'T ON TODAY!!!:confused: . Oh well.......... Talk about being "over" enthusiastic!

As you can see, I can now post charts. Thanks to Joe (administrator). I was on the phone with him and discovered that we are from the same city!. We both have the same phone and have it for the same reason. The thought process was the same ("i was just thinking that", "me too"). Bizarre...

I'm sure we will evolve to where we are supposed to be. Hope all is well with you otherwise.

I can't seem to see the images, so makes it a little difficult to make sense out of. However, I really want to understand how you set your targets. Can you PM me the pics? Thanks.

See how I got stopped out of trade 2. That long shadow!!!. 2 questions: 1) Why does this happen?. The reason I'm asking is because I heard it was the input of HFT (excuse my naivety) 2) Any strategies to handle this? I am working on my A.D.D., as we speak. Generally, I am calm natured...

Thanks for the input. Now to digest it.

............and good for my broker. I spent $100 (approx.) only on commission today. I see your point. However, 4re, I have spent and put in a lot of time studying day trading and seem to be getting better at it. All I know about swing trades is that you place your trades and let them run...
