Would have been out for a 250 gain if traded one contract.... 500 if 2 contracts. God I hate school

stop right above 431.

Yeah, was short at 663 on paper trading here at school... looking awesome.

I got it, just started reading it... that is how I know fear is a big part

I got it, just started reading it... that is how I know fear is a big part. I'll see what I can do today... maybe better results... hopefully more fun, no pressure.

Thing is, papertrading was easy for me... I executed my trades.... I didn't worry about getting filled because it was instant, and the trade went in my favor. Now, it's just getting complicated, with stops getting hit left and right, and then I miss out on the direction it was intended to go...

He did... every single time he does it right. Yesterday he was right on, on a trade that as soon as he told me, I didn't execute because I had fear. and then it dropped 35 points, which would have made up for the loss I took the day before. It was just fear... I recieved a few good pm's...

I'm taking a beating. $60 first day $-90 second day (went down $200, but made a trade to bring it up) $-150 third day (I won't lie... fear of losing was what did this to me). I'm going to trade one contract. There is no excuses for what I have done today. If I were to show you the...

Ah. I had a few good opprotunities today to trade. I actually skipped my schools "pep rally", to get home, and I knew CQG was finally set-up. I will have to wait to use TradeMaven. CQG isn't that bad, but I made several errors, and forgot to exit some positions, I actually had a long...

My mentor believes the market will go down as well. I don't know, because I'm not good enough as of yet to judge these things, but after a good move up, there usually must be a day where some selling will occur, or profit taking.

On a good note... My first day of trading, and I'm up $60 dollars. I made 2 bad trade though that actually knocked me down to -70 dollars. The first one, cost me $10, because I had to call tech support because they had my margin settings screwed, and they asked me to test it, so that cost me...

Awesome!

That is tonight actually... and yes, i'm missing it! But the chicks here aren't that good anyways.

.... okay? I suppose you haven't read this thread. Pay you no mind. Volente, DJ, how did you guys do today? I still thought today was one of the best days I have seen. Probably won't see another huge moving day like this for a few weeks, maybe a few months... looking at the daily chart...

... Well, considering I was in school, and I could see my mentors screen.... yeah, I think it was insanely easy, that is why I was ticked off I was in school. And why I posted earlier the fact that I was missing all this great action. So.... yeah, today was extremely easy if you knew support...

Got account open, just need to get trading platform configured, I could actually start trading with the crappy platform, but not willing to risk it. So tomorrow, I could very well have some trades in. Plus we have some idiotic pep rally for a team that sucks anyways, so I'm probably just...

oh my god i can't beleive i'm missing all this action today....

What are commissions and minimum funding requirements. I'll still stick with Greenstreet, but in the future... who knows. I can't access the "commissions" page on their website... maybe the school computer's fault.

2 Trades, one I shorted, and my stop immediately got hit, for a 9 point loss, but my trade didn't get executed exactly at resistance... I guess market orders aren't always good. So I went down 9 points, and then after it came back up and touched again, I shorted, and gained back a lot of...

Ripley... after reading a few of your past posts... you have a severe problem of holding on to bad trades, and I think you are pretty much in danger of ruining your life with what you are doing. Relying on luck, and all this excitement... plus the fact you have a great ability to catch big...
