Why do you care if you know all about "the obvious which is not so obvious?"

OK tax day.

-841 -115 for the week.

Solid finish to a slow week. Thank you Wells Fargo.

Damn, that's a crappy commute. No wonder I work at home. Mainly system testing in the office today, and since I only did one manual trade, I figured it may as well be a stupid one. Small green day because of UYG. Back in the home office tomorrow.

Driving into the office today and tomorrow, and forgot to post before leaving the computer there for the night. Was able to find an old version of Sterling on my second box for the blotter though. Looks a little different, but it works.

Painfully slow, but I still managed to give back most of Friday's profits. -652

I'm not sure how weird it was, but the guy who put birthdates on stuffed animals, and then produced limited amounts of each one may have made a couple of bucks. http://www.ty.com/BeanieBabies_home

Bob, I think you need an assistant. It'd only be about an hour's drive for me. A few hundo here. Got stuck with 200 MORN overnight.. scratch that. was just able to cover for a profit while writing this, so flat other than UYG.

Thanks, but I guess I'm referring more to your method of averaging into a position. As you know, I primarily run an API throughout the day, but I have been tinkering with a mean reversion strat lately which has been driving me somewhat insane. When you average in, are you using an algo...

If you can afford to lose the 206 bucks, why not? Risk/Reward looks pretty good. Welcome to the game. Good luck! JN

Hi Bob, Your above post raises a good question. You've mentioned previously that you use math to make your decisions. You obviously use some specific criteria to enter trades, but do you use an algo to help you to decide when to average in to a trade, or is this left to discretion...

Good lord. We're doomed tomorrow.

Enough said. Thx

"Too quick" implies a purely discretionary approach. Is this correct?

Well, at least you got that out of the way. Now you can start posting that other blotter again. :cool: Pretty inspiring lately, pal. Keep it up. JN

Blotter

Flat...

True. I guess I have actually paid dearly for the last one. Damn.
