    Get Ready to Short a Gold Stock!

    What was the basis for your HANS investment? That wouldnt be a contrarian, mean-reversion thing. Or was it a trade? I'm wondering what you did to catch that move since I keep kicking myself for missing it.

    NYOB Worthless?

    I don't understand how people can say the Open Book is worthless. Maybe it's not helpful for their style of trading, but every day I see fast moving stocks react to large orders showing up in the book.

    Getting Yahoo News Automatically using a hot key???

    An easy thing to do is set up a "keyword" in Firefox. I have mine set so "yf gm" pulls up the Yahoo Finance news for GM. Once you get used to using the keyboard, it's pretty fast to alt-tab to firefox, ctrl-L, keyword and bring up the news.

    Newbie NYSE stock list

    I've been reading the tapereading threads and am confused by this. I thought that you and Maverick74 looked for strong buyers or sellers in a stock. Why would a strong buyer get scared and stop his buying because of a 100 share trade in either direction? Also, when you say "my stocks" I...

    T1 line - How Much?

    This is probably a dumb question but why get a T1 (1.5 Mbps) for $400-$800 when the $40 cable modem I use always tests above 4.0 Mbps and has experienced one outage in the last 2 years?

    Trading Dummies

    That looks like a valid Dummy play to me if you're going to use 5 minute bars. There was an impulsive move to the upside so you found a low risk spot to get long. It didn't work out but hopefully you kept your loss small. I have averaged around a 40% win rate on my dummy trades (using 15 min...

    Trading Dummies

    It does if it's accompanied by unusual volume in Maoxian's Dummy system. I agree it was a good trade, I'm just saying it's not a strict Dummy trade.

    CD wouldn't be a Maoxian dummy. His method is to follow trends. That gap up would establish an uptrend so you'd be looking long. Good trade though. What made you decide to go short? Or were you just going to go with whatever direction it broke from that inside bar?
