    The Opening Orders Thread

    5 fills, all long wins, +790, 8000 shares A bit disappointing given the gap this morning; I was hoping we'd have a bigger retrace. Oh well, given the poor streak I've been in with this strategy the last few weeks (missing the two monster days last month while on vacation sure didn't help)...

    anybody is wathcing CNBC now?

    Listed stocks only, which ones are up to you. You can start with Dow stocks and go from there. Envelope is up to you as well. Big envelopes mean fewer fills but potentially fewer losers. Search on "Don's Openings" with search criteria "titles only" and "show results as threads". The basics...
