    Columbus, OH Lunch March 29, 2002

    I live here..a few other traders wanted to just get together for lunch. Friday being the market is closed, felt like a good time to do it. Not sure how many show. Just some light conversation and reasonably good hamburgers : )

    What was your worst slippage?

    Not really slippage, but this story is from 98. I entered an order on ARBA at 108 when I was using "ETrade" for daytrading (first mistake). The stock was falling, falling, falling, 102..No confirmation of my buy. I figured well shit, I guess I got filled on the buy and it's falling and since...

    Trading Intuition

    Glad to see a few more contributions. Since I started this thread a couple weeks ago, I was beginning to realize a few more of these impulses on a more consistent basis (reason for thread being I was wondering "where they went"). After reading a book suggested and talking a bit more to...

    Trading Intuition

    This interaction is probably pretty positive then as I say what I say and someone is able to pick out the keys to my words and find where the "blame if you will" lays. Commisso, you and I talked earlier today in private and you will be happy to know I now have my copy of Bagger Vance in my...

    Trading Intuition

    This is more of where my impulses engaged that I was most interested in. Many times there are areas of congestion where buyers match sellers in a very narrow range. Most of the time, I sat out these congestion moves awaiting for some break in the range and enter on that side of the break...

    Trading Intuition

    Andrasnm, your post is basically what I've reverted to, almost to the word (minus fundamentals as my short term time frame doesn't rely on this). I do like this "see setup, take it" mindset for most of my trading. It works. Most of my inquiry here mainly has to do with discussion on what...

    Trading Intuition

    Rogue Trader, this is an interesting view..celebrate its departure. The last few months have required that I see setup, see the trigger for entry, take it, go with it. Stop out, take profit, whichever outcome the market offers. There is really no intuitive anticipation in this kind of trading...

    Trading Intuition

    It could be an addition to my overall trading day, but I've never really felt "overwhelmed" by it all. My focus on stock action hasn't been as clouded or distracting..I don't mean to sound resisting to these ideas, they are probably pretty valid, it's just interesting that something so natural...

    Trading Intuition

    so by in fact looking for possible "procedural" issues that could mask my intuitive pulses, I actually self-hinder the whole natural process in general. You feel that at some point, this intuitive feeling will "just begin to flow when it is ready" to again? It is just strange overall as I was...

    Trading Intuition

    What you say I agree with. In fact, I've described many times my drawdown periods due to several different reasons including a nice win cluster. But I guess overall, my trading hasn't diminished..it stays in a consistent win/loss - profit/loss range with obvious win and loss clusters. What...

    Trading Intuition

    Good point on sideways behavior. I'm primarily a trend guy..buy high, sell higher, vice versa low side...however, I've traded in sideways markets before without much feeling like this intuitive state was diminished. Maybe the fact I'm recognizing that this intuitive state is in some diminished...

    Trading Intuition

    Trading Intuition is often a topic that I devote a little time for discussion to other traders when I speak with them about where they are in their trading careers. These traders range from the newest of newbies to the traders that I respect and continue to learn from. Intuition as I look at...
