16 Fills. 11 wins 5 Losers. Only .01c/sh Wonder if my 25c stop too wide for my 6c and 25c retracement (half position on each).

7 Fills 5 winners, 2 losers. 5 longs 2 shorts. One loser from each. +6c/sh Yesterday I entered orders too late no fills.

Can you explain?

3 Fills 1 short 2 longs all losers. Lost .16/sh Probably should have removed CTX and LEN due to TOL news. They made up the biggest loss.

3 Fills all long. +4c/sh (Total Shares In/Out)

Does anyone use seperate "buy lists" and "sell lists" if trading pairs? If I have a Long KO bias and a short PEP bias should I consider only trying to "Buy" KO and "sell" PEP and manage losses possibly by pairing? Or would this compromise the integrity of this trading strategy? Currently...

What is a good number of stocks to start with? I have about 40 stocks, all SP500 with good volume. All are between $20 and $40 to start. I am getting about 10 fills per day so far.

I am currently using a .10% stop along with retracements as follows: .10% 25% of position .20% 25% of position .30% 25% of position .40% 25% of position Do you think I should stay automated completely or partially execute manually to tape read?
