Worst week ever. First negative week in probably 2 years.

Traded poorly but finished at highs.

I started using Sterling in Feb of 2007 after dealing with the brutality that was Hydratrade quotes, and to my extreme delight Sterling was quick, clean, and functional. Since that time Sterling has added seemingly thousands of users and I think the quote speed has slowed considerably, while...

As much as sterling blows nuts and is spiraling into the shitter, Bats actually seems improved to me (no issues). Lately its been NSDQ and nyse crossing arca.

Made money so im somewhat relieved.

Lost money again. Traded poorly and took a 2300 loss in one trade when i couldnt cancel. Should be +4k on the week but im -7k. nasty. Hope the slide ends soon.

Grind up is still my worst I would say. Down is good, back and forth is good. Im normally fairly good at just waiting my turn and taking the trades i know are a high %age regardless of mkt conditions. Today it was like being pot committed too early to let go, and you cant bully a billion...

In absolute shock right now. Was having a fine day up 2500 and threw it all away plus so much more. 3 times now this month i have thrown away over 5k, and im just sooo depressed and annoyed with myself. I thought i learned last week AND the week before when i took huge losses, but it appears...

What defines what Tape a security is traded on? What tape are the follow stocks traded on: GE QQQQ EWZ TLT INTC SPY Thanks

Took it very easy today, decent overall. Congrats to The Rocketeer who graduated today! Nice job guys, never know when someones gonna be a retard and stuff your pockets. You guys both kicked my ass today woot.

Very very happy to see the market is still capable of doing stuff. Hope this is a preview of whats to come.

Had a 1k software loss, but other than that it was ok i guess, i tried to take it easy and just be green.

Had a bad decision in the morning cost me a hell of a lot. After that i did ok. Wont make that mistake again. Need to focus on discipline the rest of the month. I dont need to take the swings i am taking.

That is extremely vague and subjective. Along those lines, i could say a consolidation of 10 bars followed buy a wide range bar breakout up in a market where the ES futures are positive I should go long if the beta of said stock is 0.9-1.1 Sure it sounds good but try doing it. Its vague...

I didnt catch the fluke, i caught the ass kick EOD. Cant complain making good dough on a day like today though...

The end total is good, but like Red_ink the path was no fun. Up 3700 went red shorting the market again like an idiot, then finally something worked out and i finished at my highs. Aged 3 days today, cant handle the market grinding up like this all the time.

When i thought things couldnt get any worse, they got way worse. Everything went wrong today. Trying to shrug it off as a sobering ass kicking, reminding myself to respect the markets.
