    4 fills 1 long, 3 shorts 3 winners (+0.07,+0.15, +0.09), 1 loser (-0.23) = 10$ net on 900 shares. A pint plus tip. GLW is the loser, maybe I could have cut it on little pushing but I try to reduce the number I cancel since many news seems to have no effect.

    Opening Orders - 2008

    I dont yet, I asked people here if they where doing it to have any guidance. I also think it adds some complication to the process. The way I see it for doing that you need to be prepared. Having a list of stocks that can be paired and you have to have a real time pair chart. The whole thing...

    I thought about it but I'm not sure. 1- You have to judge when/where how far is far enough to reverse. 2- It can just stay there. 3- It's a really good idea to get involved in revenge trading and pilling up on the wrong side. With the pairs you have the "beta" hedged at least and count on...

    On ET there is a thread that is an interview with Darren Clifford, a Bright Trader. In that interview he said about OPGs; Darren: ... If I do get into a position where it is running hard against me, I'll find another stock that is sympathetic to it and I'll buy twice as much to balance out...

    1 fill, 1 long winner on 3 layers +28$ on 300 shares Sort of increased size by tightening the second and third layer. Cancelled 24 out of 50. I guess next week I will tighten my first layer to get more fills. I might also get rid of some I added last week end. Things like FRE and FNM that I...

    I've been waiting for that bitch slap in the face. I knew it would come. 2 fills, 2 short, 1 winner (+0.07), 1 loser, on 3 layers obviously (-0.82). Lessons learned; 1- know your stocks (It was a retailler and I should have cut it from the list). It's one I added during the week end. 2-...

    1 fill, 1 short, small profit Could have been better but it was not going down as fast as the S&P so I cut it. Played large on the envelope and cancelled a lot. No ABT on my list. I would also have get cought unless pre-market indicated some sketchy action.

    Opening Orders - 2008

    As of right now I dont use/have the ArcaBook and NYSE open book. Do you guys find it necessary/usefull or some of you operate without it? I have difficulty just to look at a chart and I can't imagine what it would be like having 4-5 fills and looking at all that. I guess I should have waste...
