OK, thats great, but had nothing to do with what i was asking. was just wondering what stocks you held onto all day yesterday b/c the stocks i follow that filled at the open from the long side were duds, and the shorts would have blown you out holding all day

thank you for the heads up...i dont watch fox news, cnbc, or check many news sources on the web throughout the day... Elite Trader is my sole source for any and all news.

but seriously, everyone will tell you all kinds of things but definitely learn how to not hang on to losers, avoiding the big losers, and whatever it takes to preserve capital, #1 cause for failure is blowing out your account and not having enough capital to recover. you should be well...

its all ball bearings these days...

i often wonder how exactly those numbers, 90% fail trade, are studied. not that i doubt the often cited success rate, especially if they try and take into account anyone who has ever opened a brokerage account and lost moeny or clesed it, etc... would be tough to do such a comprehensive study...

wondering what stocks you held for the day b/c they most likely would have to be longs, and my only long fill was a dud... just wanted to compare notes

if you think you get boned on the NYSE, try trading the AMEX and you will bend over and gladly take it from a nyse specialist! here is just one example: was long at the point today on an AMEX, hod was .30, partialed at .25, during the pullback into the close he ran it back past the point, then...

no sh*%, if you would have taken two seconds to actaully read the thread you would have seen he had a bullet and my comment clearly stated "in the situation you described". anything else blatantly obvious you would like point out?

i gotta tell you, i love trading the pac time. i was ALWAYS a night owl, never getting up before 10, but now i love being an early riser. i get so much done in a day and have time for my other business i run (retirement plans)... while all the east coast fat asses are gourging themselves at the...

know iremeber last time i did this having to goto each specialists website and soem are more convenient and easier to search, while some dont have any lists i thought i remembered someone discussing a site that had complete list and easy tosearch, i am sure one exists but i cant find it. oh well.

tx for reply marketrac doesnt as far as i know unless i didnt dig deep enough, but does anyone use marketrac during the day to trade off? bob bright said he uses it but i didnt catch how exactly he uses it. it looks like just a simpler, concise fromat to screen for volume and action through...

yeah, i guess i have to goto each specialist's site to see who they trade, but i thought somewhere there was a complete listing in one shot.

what websites can i find what specialists trade what stocks. i know i have seen it posted on here several times, but i tried to search and couldnt come up with anything...try plugging specialist into the search and see how many hits you get. TIA.

i would be interested.

what stock is it, is it thin? happens to me occasionaly and usually when volume is real light like a couple weeks ago, but not enough to hurt me in the long run. of course it only happens when its going to be a sweet fill, so i am sure yours would have been a good trade. i hate when you put in...

one more comment b/c i must rip allentown while i have the chance. i was saying bethlehem is really revivng, easton is starting to turn around, but every time i go back allentown keeps getting crappier and crappier!

stop, your making me homesick...i do miss the area to be honest, i still have a lot of family and friends in the area, the old victorian homes (i like west end), history, time warps and dives....its very feasible to commute to jersey or even NYC and philly from there, when i left a lot of...

i have always avoided thin lizzys as a rule of thumb, but every time a "bend" my rules i seem to do well in the thins. idk if this is too small a sample but i am continuing to trade them w/ smaller size to see how it pans out. i feel like its playing w/ fire b/c i have been stuck on the wrong...

i wouldnt want to be short when the invsion takes place, too volatile no matter what happens for you "pattern-techie types" but it is a gorgeous pattern on the 60 min
