    I Hope Everyone did the Standard Trading move here

    I didn't say market gaps being filled. I was talking about individual price action of equities and how they perform when we have a market gap open. Intraday trading. EXample Market gaps open up 200+ Dow points. Short the gap open and initial run up by shorting various equities. Dow pulls...

    I Hope Everyone did the Standard Trading move here

    lindq, If you read my above post I already said it isn't always a sure thing(1:33 post). I said there isn't any sure things in the market but to trade it accordingly and to be nimble protecting your capital IF it doesn't play out. \ The last few weeks we have had big up days and big down...

    I Hope Everyone did the Standard Trading move here

    Sorry you are missing the point. If I tell you today I will be going long into a gap down and tomorrow the market gaps down that will be my trading strategy. I'm giving you 24 hours notice for tomorrow. You are crying for advance notice, there it is. Get it?

    I Hope Everyone did the Standard Trading move here

    I believe I posted a thread on Trading 101 that day "I hope everyone did the Standard Trading Move and Protected their Capital" that discussed protecting your capital when trades go against you and don't go as anticipated. Sorry guy but there is NO SURE thing when it comes to trading. You have...

    I Hope Everyone did the Standard Trading move here

    No it is not a new concept. It is trading 101. That's why I said in my initial post that I hoped everyone traded the gap open accordingly.

    I Hope Everyone did the Standard Trading move here

    I actually posted on this topic weeks ago about routinely making these trades on gap opens. And suggesting that individuals do the same. This type of market and the volatility we have been seeing lends itself to this trade strategy. It is basic trading 101 that Everyone on here should know...

    I Hope Everyone did the Standard Trading move here

    It is common to NOT catch all of a move. That is the regular occurrence for all traders. Don't be mad. Move on. I learned long ago to never play the shoulda/woulda game....especially when it comes to capturing every last penny of a move. I never catch every last penny... Shorting a massive...

    I Hope Everyone did the Standard Trading move here

    That would be shorting into a massive gap up open like we had this am. Basic Trading 101. You know a massive gap open is going to give back a lot of that at some point. I am not saying the sort of reversal we are currently seeing happens routinely. What I am saying is that massive gaps...

    Hillary wants 5 yr Int. Rate FREEZE!

    This really pisses me off. They are screwing over the people who did the right thing and didn't take these BS loans. The family that did the smart thing and took out a traditional 30 year fixed at a higher rate. Do they get a break? No they get screwed over and have to pay a mortgage at a...
