@collegetrad3r: I'm glad to see your riding the coattails of a loser like TraderZone. That guy is a complete troll. If I blow my account out, which is highly unlikely considering the size of my account and my position sizes, then so be it, but I appreciate the haters like yourself. It'll...

@riskfreetrading: Thanks man ! You rock. I'm checking out your links now. I dont think I could work for anyone, as I own my own business, so I dont have anymore time. This has been very tough for me, but I'm extremely determined. I think it comes from being a software engineer. Sometimes I...

@riskfreetrading: Cumalative, if I lose $25k I will start to feel some pain and start questioning everything. Today wasnt great at all. Started out the day sleep deprived (6 hrs of sleep). Picked 2 entries correctly. First one, my stop was to tight. Second time, I mistakenly hit the sell...

Thanks duhmentor. I agree with you 100%. I'm switching to a decent trading platform this week. With it, I will be able to enter OCO's and limit orders with 1 click and set default templates so I dont have to fill out the same info over and over like I'm doing now. Truth be told, I cant wait to...

Argh, got massacred today using larger position sizes on 3 trades in MSFT, FAS, FAZ. 1 trade was bad because I was just flat out wrong. My other 2 trades were actually correct in predicting the trend, but because it took be so long to trying to fill out and refill the OCO and limit order...

Only traded once and briefly today. Still waiting for my primary account to be setup. +$105

Traded small on my backup brokerage account so I would stick to my system. Was able to properly time it. Still waiting for my main trading account with a new broker to be setup (hopefully by Oct 28, 2009 ). I'm really looking forward to this new trade interface, to see what impact it has on...

Thanks guys, I'm still reading Trading in the Zone. I definitely realize the problem I have. I'm slowly trying to get past it. I only traded small positions the last 2 days, as I'm switching brokers to use a different interface. It takes me 2 minutes to fill out an OCO with my current...

Argh, tried to pick a bottom (got greedy) before a full signal formed on FAS this morning and lost money (would have made 3% if I just waited). 2nd trade was not the greatest timing wise, however, I sold as soon as the stock dipped down 1/2% for a loss. Had I held on for 2 mins more , I would...

+$500 today Was up $1200 at one point, but I made two trades that were not part of my system. I was chasing and acted on impulse I do feel more confident that I was able to follow my system for most of the day.

Was up $500, but then I chased two trades and didnt follow my system on a 3rd trade and ended up down $200. I finally followed my system on my 4th trade, but then my brokers site went down for 5 min. Luckily, I was able to recover most of it. I'm going to list out the 5 steps of my system...

Wow ! I was right about BKS (Barnes & Noble as well), my stop was only off by 2 cents !!!!!

XRX - Buy at $7.66 Stop set to $7.50 1-4 day swing trade

Argh, Was in FAZ at 19.09 at 9:33am but didnt follow my system all the way through and jumped out at the first sign of weakness (at ~$19.30) on the 1min charts. I really need to follow through with my system and not be so timid ! Could have rode it all the way up to $19.70 Made +$400...

Scalped COF for +$150 today

Probably should have sold BKS at 21.24 Dow industrials looks like its about to start a downturn right now for 1-3 days

Wow, I like how the same group of people infiltrate almost every thread on this site and act like teenagers and completely ruin it, talking about everything over than what the thread is about, including calling each other names back and forth. Grow up people ! This site is a joke.

I can see TraderZones has nothing of value to say. I've seen you post on dozens of boards, writing inflammatory remarks everywhere. TZ: I see you constantly calling dozens of other people names on here all the time (eg: Jack Hershey, etc). Are you really that juvenile ? Do you really have...

duhMentor: I dont have a hard target/profit (I set an automatic sell for $23 ), but I generally wait for my system to show that the trend has reversed (broken down). I'll post here when I sell or if I get stopped out. I know this may seem unorthodox, but I also (being a software engineer)...

Just bought BKS right now (after hours). Long Swing trade (should last 2-8 days): Barnes & Noble - 'BKS' Buying at $21.03 Stop set to: 20.45 @duhmentor: I have columns in my trading log for the following that I enter for each trade (and constantly review to see the mistakes I'm...
