well, i lied - didn't feel 100%, but who cares! $148 on 15,800 shares really excellent trades today - I was smart most of the time. I played each trade extremely cautiously, but I got angry on my BRCM short and stepped up my share size to 1000 from 400. Would have been stupid, but I...

we've been over this before. BP doesn't matter because: 1.) $1 = $1 no matter how much BP you have. You can't spend % and 2.) some props have virtually unlimited BP, some retailers don't use 100% of their BP; I'm assuming you want to know BP because you want to know how much is at...

so would this be a longer term bearish signal? I saw it about 40 times Wednesday on aapl

-33.27 on 18,200 shares so pissed! I was up about 600 bucks 30 minutes into the day (bought goog right before the open for a quick 200 plus a couple of excellent trades for about 15 a piece), but then I gave it all back ended up flat on goog long/short (up a whole $.76 actually) and...

Sometimes I see this action on level II: ask's are filled and bids are stepped up, then the price on the ask and bid drops $.04 or so for no apparent reason - WTF? for example b a .88 .89 .88 .90 .88 .91 .87 .92 green orders...

consistency? hmmm, if I could make $100,000 in january and lose $5 grand a month for the rest of the year, I'd be cool :D I'd be pissed about missing the 55g's, but I'd still be better than last year!

awwww what a sweet new years resotisement

Szeven, way to go! good acceleration through the year - put a regression to the data and see what you'll be making next december! (if only that could work lol )

btw guys, there's a new board for 2006 not sure if it matters or not, but that's where I posted.... and you know I start all the trends :P but for sharts sake, here's my blotter for this board

sounds good to me! up about 200 realized and 400 unrealized on 23K shares learned some really excellent things today, but two stupid fat finger mistakes made me lose about 200 bucks. I really need to quit shorting aapl when it's in an uptrend :D I was really stupid on DADE I...

well, my swing trade on ucbh was a big crapper made some cheese back, but not much -226.12 on 2300 shares

+347.46 and -85 in a swing position on 7500 shares on the paper trades I started off down a G but fought back to -630. Starting to get the hang of this, but I still feel really disconnected in a way.

+94 on 14,000 shares learned some more good lessons today. I'm starting a paper journal - i never keep up my electronic ones. The lessons I've learned to past few days have cost me enough so that I do not want to have to relearn them. Still down this month about 3g's btw - the lower...

well, if you look at my PnL, I'm obviously not getting something! If something is moving in the correct direction (which is rare), I'll hang on until the tape says otherwise.

i'm glad you're such a joker

I am really stupid my size was small, then for some idiotic reason, I thought I could do it w/ bigger size well, I got caught on the wrong side of aapl's move more than once SMALL SIZE SMALL SIZE SMALL SIZE -913 on 160k shares

i have a time stop because if what I'm in isn't moving, something else is this way, i can get out what I'm in and go lose money faster in something else :D

and what is your horizon, mandatory liquidity,etc. tape reader, chartist.....etc. fav plays: AAPL, NVDA, NTRI, SWN, STLD my horizon for day trades is less than 10 minutes usually, so 10 min. is my time stop i use aapl and nvda because of their volitility and liquidity, swn because if...

A list 15 and tactical long range shooting i feel these two are essential to my mental health as a trader (although I am from the south ):D )

well, what are you trading? forex will get you more than that! retail is not possible due to nasd 2520 you could always go get loans off credit cards at zero% - with the new bankruptcy laws, CC co's are ready and willing to let people pile on the debt
