I replied to this question about two times, but it has yet to show up. For the first two weeks there was some training...now its more of I ask questions and get an answer to certain setups or how the market is playing out throughout the day. I do have a trader sitting 1 seat away from me. He is...

6/20/11 P&L= -25 Shares traded= 1,400 I made 7 trades today. mostly scratches and small losers. Using my trading as a tool to learn. I've been watching the SPY, QQQ, DIA and looking at the price, volume, and momentum....watching all of these in respect to important levels. Overall I feel...

Ok and I will be watching it tomorrow. Thanks for the advice...still getting a feel for stock selection. I actually was watching FNSR and JDSU, just didn't get anything that I saw as a good trade. What were your levels and can you maybe provide an example on how you would have traded it? Thanks.
