Watching the Masters right now and will be watching the Yankees vs. Red Sox later on tonight. I'm expecting more greatness from Alex Godriguez -- that's no typo. After watching Rory McIlroy blow his lead and subsequently capitulate has been a great example of how important psychology is any...

Kurt, Are you originally from SoCal? How do you like trading those hours out there?

Yes I have a daily stop loss fixed by my firm for my automated trading and my discretionary trading. I rarely hit it though.

This is great advice that I'm following in my own momo trading.

Today's total results: -$1414.02 Discretionary: -$917.14 Really slow day. I had some good longs that reversed into losers as the day went on. Most of my losing day comes from fading SPY. I'm not good at it and I'm officially leaving SPY alone from a fading/trading standpoint. I'm sure I'm...

Great video. Social purchasing is verrrrrrry overrated.

Cool. Yankees > Phillies...and it's not really up for debate. As far as Iverson goes...I'm a huge fan of the guy. I just thought his exchange with the cop was funny. I actually know the girl that was with Iverson the night that he got into trouble in the bowling alley before attending...

The Marlins are terrible and they're trading away talent. Even after they won the World Series their stands were empty. Oh yea, did I mention they're terrible? Let's go Yanks!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyway this article was much funnier...

Today's total results: -$113.68 Today doesn't even warrant a recount of anything here. Thanks.

The Tape Reading thread was classic IMO. It helped me out a lot before I started trading. Mav played a pretty large role in making that thread as educational and informative as it is.

I'm an INTJ and I don't give a fuck if you think I, or people like me are assholes (guess that makes me an asshole huh?). I can actually be pretty extroverted when I want to be -- give me a few drinks. Actually, recently I've been placed in multiple situations that force me to become more...

I'm certain Mav isn't a principle at SMB and I can say that for a fact having personally met the 2 founders of SMB...and regardless of what you may think of their am calls, they're both good guys that have been full-time traders since the '90's --- no easy feat in this business. That said, Mav's...

This is hands down one of the most funny threads on ET. Inky start posting regularly again!

Usually when I'm selling for a loser.

We all know this is probably all truth.

Today's total results: -$1113.83 Discretionary: +$201.79 Big opportunities today..didn't really capitalize. Traded from home and was distracted working on a non-trading related project. Should've just held my TZOO short for the day and left...would've been a nice day. Biggest Winners...

I only list discretionary trades. I definitely trade some of the same stocks as the bots do everyday, but certainly not all of those stocks b/c I can't...or I've never tried to manage as many positions as they can at one time. On really volatile days, they can be in greater than 90 positions at...

What is that you see that tells you that the top is in? Your analysis just seems random and biased. If you provided some reasoning to go along with your positioning it would at least help those here understand the "why" of what you do a little better...right now it just seems like you randomly...

Idk where I said that, but I may have been referring to a strategy that I am presently testing that isn't live. As for the live robots, one trades 100 share lots but it sometimes gets into up 200 shares/trade depending on whether certain conditions are met and the other takes a bit more risk and...
