Not too bad a day.. OO ACN +.16 WYE -.02 BP -.01 took a quick peek at the book and bailed BR .00 same thing And then we tried to trade WYE .00 WB +.03 set up was there but market just wouldn't move, then the sellers came in WYE +.09 and boy did I screw this trade up...

Don. how does one get to go on the trading floor? Wouldn't you have to be with someone who works there? I would love to go on the floor for a day, week, month... what ever I could get. You got any contacts who owe you a favor? :) Slept in again today, should have stayed in longer...

ZZZZZZZZZZ Literally... I slept in again, woke up too late to get any OO out. May have to start setting my alarm clock again. But after the open I did OK. WMT -.06 tried this as a short at the open, sort of my default opening order. Had somebody clean out the book on me. Then...

Yikes... me a standard??? :eek: For what? Benchmark for futility perhaps. :p I went short on WFC because the market was weak and WFC was hanging around it's previous day low. But the market firmed up (it is that spy in my computer telling the others what my position is ) and I had...

One fill GDT scratch .00 In other trading... Struggling... Can't hit my ass with a bass fiddle. Got back into GDT cause it looked to be setting up long and the market was beginning to trend up. Naturally, the sellers came in to chase me out. Later it took a quick jump. GDT...

Ho hum.... No fills on the open. I am not going to reduce my envelopes just to get fills. I believe there is a threshold beyond which, you get as much random movement as anything else, and lots of adverse fills in that area. And in other trading. No green..... WM -.03 BP -.08...

A real snoozer.. literally, I overslept and missed the open. Then made up for it by missing the morning moves. AIG -.05 USB +.01 USB +.07 And that is that.. off now to design rocket motors. :cool:

Fizzle... sput..sputt... cough.. poof RD scratch BP -.03 Got em long on the open, got out when I saw the sells lining up. And.. in other news PFE -.02 KO +.08 PEP .00 WMT -.01 MRK .00 STM .00 I am setting out my covers at .10 - .12 away, but they just aren't getting there...

Ho ho... hum..hum.. STX +.03 FRE +.10 UNH +.12 Actually wasn't too bad, just felt I had to take very quick profits. Sure glad I got off that STX short in a hurry.. :cool: Post open, zzzzzzz Just can't seem to get the movers. CCU +.02 FRE -.07 LOW scratch PG -.01 WM...

Don answered the post absolutely correctly. Today.... ho hum yawn.. PDG +.07 BMC +.01 Got out of both real quick. Then, post open, AFL -.03 NEM -.03 KO +.02 We are really burnin' it up here.. :p

A big fizzle for such a nice OO gap. SNE -.15 WYE +.05 WM +.04 WFT +.14 NWL -.09 TXN +.04 FRE +.01 KMX .00 started trying to cover at the market at +.20, got out even. Shoulda got greedy quicker on this one. :) Three other trades today. WM +.03 MWD +.03 MO .00...

I don't know if it was Echo/Stirling again or what. But my charts and quotes didn't look right until I restarted the software. One fill on OO PDG for -.01 I notice an hour and a half (almost) and ABC still is not open. and in other news..... BMY +01 BP .00 BP +.04 BP -.06...

A good morning for Echo/Stirling. No Problems. Keep up the good work.

Finally, a decent OO morning. No quotes/charts/routing/open book/disconnect problems. FCS +.10 TER -.12 always one in the crowd. JCP +.30 ACE +.15 IPG -.01 and then there was..... JPM -.02 BP +.03 HAL +.08 WAG -.01 WFC +.08 Short stubby profits if there are any there at...

Ke..rapp, Routing went down at the open, with a bunch of opening orders out there. That is 2 significant problems this week. :( :( :( Tough to trade if we can't route orders. And somebody asked me why I wasn't trading more size than one and two lots. Gotta be...

Oh boy....... No fills, thank heaven........ Echo servers went down again or something... couldn't route any orders, couldn't cancel any orders.... Thankfully, I had canceled my shorts prior, and had a wider envelope anyway. But I was sure stuck in some long side OO forever...

No echo problems, but the opening sure sucked. ABS -.03 SWY -.12 LMT -.10 TSN +.16 RTN +.09 Always somebody there to take away any profit... :( My own trading wasn't any better. FRE +.09 VZ -.03 PEP -.03 PEP -.03 Nothing acomplished but commissions and bullets.

No chart data at the open today...... By my count, that is 3 signicant problems in 3 weeks. :( :(

Caught a break today ( I guess). Again, I caught myself putting in several hundred DAY orders... :eek: So, I just had time to cancel them all before the open. Then..... Echo doesn't have any chart data at the open. AGAIN..... So, I guess my angel was on the job today.

I wish I had got nothing.... Got 2 piddly losers, Raven worked correctly and took me out of both faster than I could. USG -.05 SNE -.04 and ... the rest of the story...... BSX -.02, but darn it, if the market would have given me just a tiny bit of help a little bit earlier, I...
