This hedge fund listed an internship position on my school's career services, um, service. Anybody know these guys? -k

nice way to end the week, guy! I miss trading! :'(

I found the key - TRADE DURING CLASS! Since dropping my size to 500 shares, I've become less emotional, but trading while paying attention to something else is really paying off. Investments up $400 or so today. P/L realized on trading during my 1 hour 15 minute Financial Accounting class i...

can't post a link? I post them all the time, and so do a lot of other people. Is it Vlad's room?

btw, I had scottrade for a while. That platform sucks! Do they even do their own clearing? The BA is always at least 5 to 10 seconds behind everyone else's. I have a friend who still uses it, and when I see something interesting go through on the tape, I'll say, "hey, do you see that order...

No joke - NVDA looks like a good BO (glad I got in on Friday even if I did get a crappy fill). Onto FLEX: The thing about TA is that there are indicators the majority looks for. For example, most TA people watch the 13 and 50 MA's be they simple, weighted, volume weighted, etc. These...

WOW- what a great website! Looks like I found what I'll be doing tonight!

there are may posts about the numbers for traders. Somewhere between 80% to 95% of day-traders fail is the number I hear. Huge sums of profit come at huge risk.

holy crappers - MK is only 28?!?!?!? I need to step it up! MK, when did you become consistently profitable? P/L not even worth posting - $5 In class all day, no way to trade. Maybe it'll be tradesports.com for me because 4x is kicking me arse. -K

haters: makes this board feel more, uhhh, dirt-real. Like I've said before, who really cares if nbbo and mk are faking it - their stories are an inspiration; being able to take time off to spend w/ family is something for which to strive. They do not divulge "secret" formulas of trading, nor...

no joke - I was reading about it in BOOKS printed last year! Specifically "The World is Flat: a Brief History of the 21st Century." Basically anything that's IT and China is big. American product distributers in India (like Coke, Doritos, etc.).... Just think!

pure speculation about today's action: I think day traders are going to be all over this thinking it will move like friday (not neccessarily in the same direction or all in one direction). This will make it hard for institutions to find a decent buy point until the waters settle. I'm sure...

you're not the only one! Well guys, school starts on Monday, so I'm done trading until I get a break to do so..... How am I ever gonna catch back up to where I was last week?

oh yeah, that's it alright. It dropped about 60 cents after I placed my order. ugh!

Fibs looked like an ABC up, Level II showed weakness at the ask compared to the bid, and stoch was turning. The bet should have been smaller, no doubt! I figured I would risk $.04 at $9.92 making my mental stop as a market order sell at $9.88. Orders fell through before mine got filled, and I...

what was your trade volume today?

mk, don't the rebates get paid 15 days after the quarter ends? are you counting those profits today? I'm still reevaluating my trading. Not feeling it. Lost about 800 today on open positions. I'm holding AAPL and NTRI for a while until I figure out how to get back in the game. My new...

what about prop shops?

Well, I'm getting some new rules for intraday trades. I'm cutting my tools down and focusing harder on what I know - quit trying to use shit I don't know how to. Secondly, I'm going to start using what I know best more often: swing trading. My day-trades are going to be cut to scalps on 500...

wanna see something painful? 14% change today - ouch! Learned many many things.......
