    if it wasn't for the Q's, i'd be underwater. CENX had been good to me for a while now, but my luck with that piece o' garbage stock finally ran out.

    What's the record high a stock rose in a single day?

    lol. CSLR, too. yesterday it closed at $3.20. today it went up 470% then crashed back down. i feel sorry for the guys who were the prints between $14.95 and $15. i wonder if those trades'll be busted.

    Trader P/L 2005

    instead of paying per share, like .004 p/s at e*trade pro, they just pay per fill.. like say $1, regardless of how many shares. guys at HLV could put in an order for say 15,000 LU, and only pay ~$1. if the transaction for some reason took 3 prints to fill (8,000 shares, 5,000 shares, and 2,000...

    to get the 1 million shares a month/.001 commission at Genesis, you'd only hafta do one 25,000 lot LU round trip a day. the .002 liquidity rebate would cover the commission on both ends. making a penny on the trade, or even a sub-penny would be icing on the cake. worse comes to worse, when...

    good job, as usual. i know you and lescor must be salivating for quadruple witching tomorrow. i hope my prop account'll be up and running by the time the next one comes around. don't forget to post the blotter!

    trust me dude i'd love to do it. it's just that my .004 p/s commissions don't make it feasible. there's no way i can do it profitably without a nice move. also, i'd probably be to chicken to do it with so much size. i mean, i could handle a 200,000 share, $50,000 EAG position. but if it...

    i f*ckin' blew that GS trade. with 600 shares, and being that it was up over $4 at one point, i shoulda made at least 2 grand off of it. oh well.

    i dodged a bullet today. i had a 600 share overnight GS lot, and their earnings blew chunks. luckily, all the bad news was already priced in.

    ok, i see. i don't know why i went to the arca book when you gave me mytrack last night. so you were that 700,000, 7:52 bid. i know you don't wanna give away too many secrets, but i don't have the 7 figure account to get your commish rates, so i'd need at least a penny move. you think i...

    Goldman Sachs

    ouch. looks like they did take a bath in their commodity trading. "Net revenues in Fixed Income, Currency and Commodities (FICC) were $1.52 billion, 20% lower than the second quarter of 2004, primarily due to lower net revenues in credit products, interest rate products and commodities. In...

    hey, mksummny. so that initial 50K is you? do you always have orders in on both sides, or do you ever wait until you get the fill? i see that new 700K order just hopped in front. is it possible that that was a sub-penny order that's not showing .11x? i'd have to find a good pay per print...

    oh, okay.. so it splits up all of the same price orders on the ECN book by time? interesting. thanks for the link. i'll check that out tomorrow.

    Trader P/L 2005

    my day ended out pretty well thanks to the rallying Q's. mksummny, i was wondering.. do the larger limit orders get quicker fills on the ECN's, or is it still first come/first served basis regardless of the size of your order? i was placing orders all day on these WBR/EAG/LU-type stocks...

    Trader P/L 2005

    great job. i enjoy your blotters too. those small stocks that you trade.. do you just take 100,000 share (or so) hit or miss positions, or do you just scale in 10k-20k shares at a time each s/r level, collecting rebates along the way, until you're green? i can't read CPN. i wish i could.
