    What kind of strategy is necessary to make money at Swift?

    Whats the deal with the guy from HLV who likes LU, MOT, NT and trades in 1,000 share lots... 1k shares on LU? Maybe they meant 100k shares? Just seemed like odd wording.

    Had system issues in the morning for the first 40 minutes, and just didnt have a good feel the rest of day. Missed what oppourtunity i saw, and spent a lot of time talking/zoned out.

    Posting a blotter is easiest by highlighting the blotter window and pressing alt-printscreen. Then open paint, paste it, alter what you need to (hehe) and then save it as date.png Easiest way i could think of.

    making the big bucks

    Depends if you are willing to take a split as well. If you dont take 100% of your profits you can get considerably under 40 cents per 1k. That allows different types of trading you simply cannot do on $2 a thousand. Just weigh your options and pick the best one.
