New trade in my scan that looks for overbought/sold patterns, sector play. Not a correl play. Playing the 5 minutes chart. Short FITB @ 8.40 Long FNF @ 15.20 Very risky and will cut it fast if needed.

2 fills, 2 shorts, 1 winner, 1 loser, -0.01 average. Mostly fess. Larger on longs. Did not play financials. One loss on a large spread on a hitted stop. Not patient enough on the other.

The pair is only down the amount to expect as a profit target. If one has a big drawdown on such a move he is taking too big positions IMO.

Took ealy profits Sold MFC @ 19.79 Covered PRU @ 42.83 +3.92% after fees overnight Expected a bigger move on the downside for PRU after the Stress Test and I am not willing to carry that trade any longer. Time will tell.

Forum hyping :p

Insiders, délit d'initié.

The Jonnysharpe "Pairs Trading Journal" is very close to real time, considering that trades are in swing. And it's profitable. Are you looking for an anchor? lol.

New trade: Long MFC @ 18.90 Short PRU @ 43.00

EUR European Central Bank Rate Decision. BoJ Central Bank Rate Decision. GBP Bank of England Rate Decision. More for the Forex though.

7 fills, 1 long, 6 shorts, 4 winners, 3 losers, +0.005 average. Mostly shaken out on stops, 3 losers that took away all profits. Obviously, the biggest loser was a long. Should have played a little larger on that side. No long orders on financials. Cancelled about 50%.

Isn't it just about how you set the parameters? If your system triggered on may 1st you may want to have a look at that! I dont trade LNN because it has not enough volume but this pair would never have triggered in my screener (my own code, not PTF).

4 fills, 4 shorts, 3 winners, 1 loser, +0.09 average. Short only orders. Had a little power shut down here at 9:10, back at 9:15. The gambler in me went anyway :-| I need a backup battery.

Isn't PRU reporting earnings may 6 AMC?

1 fill, 1 short, 1 winner, +0.20 average.

3 fills, 3 shorts, 3 winners, +0.26 average.

Forget it, wait till 1.3380

With a decent broker you should be able to change the stop trigger method. I dont know for Quest. IMO you should be able to place stops in advance and not being afraid of being shaken out 2$ away by a bid. I use the double last, but that depend on what you do...

Down a ton? 7% is no big deal IMO. REG, SPG earnings, no news? ESI sector down 4%.
