Don, smashing good idea, let's take this to another level and exchange REAL information in a comfortable setting. Let me know if you want my watchlist hits for today, be glad to provide it. Still monitoring 200 stocks between 30-130 bucks, with a min volume of 700000 daily. The real trades...

Here is my opening play's for today: Trades: UTX, short at 64,80, exit at 65,05, LOOSER PG, long at 79,31, exit at 79,56, WINNER VIA'B, long at 43,32, exit at 43,05, looser Not too many fills on 20 orders, but in terms of winner/ratio statistically "correct" over the long haul.

No problem, by the way, here is some play's from my watchlist thursday which I haven't included in my stats until today. Too many stocks to follow sometimes:-) LLY, long, LOOSER SII, long, LOOSER GS, long, WINNER UN, short, WINNER Just for the records, LLY has been a looser twice in...

Don, is you envelope a total 0f .8, meaning .4 below and above? Or is it .8 above and below fv? Happy new year!!

Sure, let's take an example for instance PG today. FV indicated an opening down 0,1%. That means the FV for PG today was previous closing 79,51-0,1%=FV which was 79,43. I placed an opening buy at 78,93 and sell short at 79,93. The stock opened at 78,9 where I got filled. I covered my pos at...

Today's plays: MMM, enter long at 120, stopped out at 119,75, LOOSER KO, enter long at 47,31, stopped out at 47,20, LOOSER Well, shit happens. Had many orders in today but got only 2 "hits". Seems like the action and liquidity needed for some REAL plays are lacking these x-mas days...

Don, had 27 orders*2 yesterday and still only got 2 as you did. Still good for getting into the day of trading.

Don, by envelope I guess you mean the span below and above a stock's FV? Interesting if you use .8, still use .5 myself. Tried to analyze based on .4, but the edge gets smaller even if you get hit more often. Though does it seem that the stocks that "works better" can be enveloped even at...

Last one for today just got hit, GM with target at 48,20, entered opening short at 48,45.

Done some research on which ones that comes out more positive than others. No safe bet, but still an "edge". I calculate fair value for "my" stocks, then place orders long below and short above. You use this approach? By the way, here is my other stocks which I don't trade yet, but keep in a...

Here are my trades for today on the opening: KO, long at 47,5, exit 47,75, WINNER JNJ, long at 59,34, exit at 59,56, WINNER also hit on my watchlist were GM,JPM, HD,MRK,ABT,CI,IGT. Comments still appreciated!! :D

What the heck! I might as well post my opening plays for the day, so we all can share and bring our strategies to another level. Hopefully somebody else also will provide their plays at the end of day. Here goes: AOL, long at 32,43, stopped out at 32,10, went thru my initial stop at 32,18...

Don, do you still calculate 1 future point equal to 8 dow points, or is it more these days? Things might have changed since I last participated in you and your brother's class in Vegas:) Just wondered since this of course may influence my opning orders both short and long. By the way...

Don, appreciate the answer. By the way, check out (if you allready haven't) HDI and NKE. Both have been great plays this last week on opening orders that is. So far I prefer the "big blue" myself during openings, my rule of thumb is that a candidate on one's list at least should have a 2-1...

Don, that went a little over my head! Are you saying that you don't do the same stocks on the opnings every day? And please explain what you mean by it's dangerous to use previously day's closing price. I thought that was the idea!! If for instance EK closed at 30 and our fair value calc...

Don, seems to me that my research on the subject pretty much correlates with your results in the spreadsheet. I have put down 50 stocks of which I think would be a good fit for the opening only orders. So far (though I have only monitored 150 opening fills or so) it seems that some stocks...
