My modest office. One flat panel with one AIQ realtimealert charts app (daily time frame) and execution software only. Nothing more. I`m not that messy...the pillow is for when my Schnauzer wants to hang out. :D http://tinypic.com/k20mli.jpg

thank you Bob.

I also would like to have that resource.

(Deep breath......) ah..forget it. Trading is like life. You "get it" early on or you never do.

how did you blow up?

We all lose control at some point or another. Its how much we lose control. And how long it takes to rein it back in that separates the seasoned income producers from the feeder fish. When I say we all lose control I don't necessarily mean taking extraordinary risk, revenge trading or just...

Up @ 7am. In the office @ 8:30. Orders entered for the open @ 9. 9:30-4 watch the tape in all open positions and hedge with ETF`s accordingly (my only intra-day trading). Leave the office @ 4:30, home by 5. 6pm run EOD scans for next trading day. Repeat.

Regardless, your account is still short stock that would be going up in a squeeze.

Still seems to me that if they were so many naked shorts out there a more savvy player could come in and squeeze the crap out of them. If I were some monster opportunistic style HF that would be my play. Can it possibly be that OSTK has just been a POS from Dec 04-now???

No offense meant here but maybe your brother is a bit of a miser? :D Reminds me a story about this guy who lived in a shack in my town when I was growing up. Total nutjob..hoarding newspapers...living in squalor..the whole bit. He dies....come to find out his estate is in the millions. The...

"It`s funny because it`s true" Homer Simpson Did all the wrong things first and second times around. Did the opposite of everything I did the first two times around the third time and Bingo! i.e adding to losers, trading too big, catching the falling knife or shorting into...

:eek: I would agree with you if the psychology of trading wasn't still 99% of the battle. But it is.

Very cool thread. Shame I dont live in MN...I would be all over that.

33 North fork of Long Island. 4 years 1 month 29 days 6 hours and 20 minutes as of 3:40EST Trade everything except debt and forex and don't plan on it. 99% of my trades are triggered based on daily closing prices...with typical holding periods of weeks. Other 1% are quick...

I disagree...my broker allows these crazy new order types called "Stops". You can place an order to Buy/Sell or Short when a price level gets breached. If our chart reading friend had bracketed his triangle with Buy or Short stops he would have gotten some off no problems. :D sorry...
