i always keep a small amount of ALTI in my account. you never know when it's gonna spike.. like today. :)

does this mean that you won't get March's check, or April's until you make back that entire $1,200?

congrats on the engagement. did she move to Vegas with you? how did she feel about your resigning from your stable job to trade.. especially now in light of the 75% drawdown?

so much for Dow 11,000, eh?

oh by talent i didn't mean stockpicking. i don't think his picks are any better or worse than anyone else's. i meant talented as in self-promoting huckster/entertainer/motormouth-type who can rattle off the amount of info he can about (an alleged) 500 stocks off the top of his head.

lol. i couldn't take but a few minutes of that on-air seizure, myself.. and i like the guy. he reminds me alot of Chris Berman and Dick Vitale. they're 3 peas in a pod. they're all very talented, and about the best at what they do.. but you can only take so much of those koo koo clocks in...

damn, i knew i shoulda bought more ALTI yesterday. this stock is allergic to 4. everytime it dips under, it shoots up the next day or so.

here's a few good threads on pairs.. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=43073 http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=45130 http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=8533

no offense, but i hope it crumbles so i can get back in. :( i forgot to fire up the watchlist when i got to my desk, and missed the run. unfortunately, it looks like i'll be sittin' it out today. if she gives me another pullback, i'm in.

Mark Haynes just said 19 of the 30 Dow companies have just started their nano R&D. they'll probably blow all these little companies outta the water.. especially those who've yet to secure the more valuable patents.

i pretty much do both. most of my trades are intended do be intraday.. but if they close out strong, i'll scale out of a portion, bank the gain, and keep a small swing position open overnight. the next day, i'll tape read the position and try to maximize any profit if it continues running...

i'm glad brokers won't allow shorting.. less selling pressure. $6.20 and counting!

$5.50, up another $0.73 in the pre-market. those guys over at yahoo are going bonkers. one of them claims to own 40,000 shares, and yesterday ordered a new lexus. haha.. http://messages.yahoo.com/?action=q&board=ALTI

this was an older guy who's only been here a month or so and still trades small. he had a negative P&L when i walked by his computer, but so i doubt it was more than a couple hundred shares. the market musta caught his other trades short.

true. it could easily have gone back down. i did buy some more for $4.74 (only 100 shares) right before the close. i felt like making a small overnight gamble. we're at $5.02 now.

just hit $4.25. this is painful to watch. i gotta set up that nanotech watchlist so i can catch these runs in the future.

i never play these type stocks either, but i figured at $2.90, why not grab 500 shares. now it's at $4.02, and i've been out the past 52 cents. hate when that happens. i knew i shoulda scaled out.

i'm out. just rode it from $2.90 to $3.50 for a 21% gain.. i'll might buy a small position at the close. and there it goes again.. damn.

ALTI ain't stopping! :eek: i shoulda started a new topic, and bought more.

ALTI :eek: :eek: :eek: this dude in my office rode it up 80 cents, THEN told the rest of us about it.
