One short scratch. Pulled almost half my roster as well on news.

No fills. See you back here Tuesday.

2 long (1w-1l), 1 short loser, -200 Would have been a decent day had I noticed I got filled in LOW, which opened late. Cost me $400 but would have been a winner had I seen it. Of course those always end up going against you, right? They can't go way more in your favor than you would have...

One long fill for scratch today.

I wish there were a cookbook answer to "how to exit" but in my experience it is pretty much like lescor said a few posts ago; once you're in, it's Trading 101. I handle it like any other trade. Some trades I scale out of, some I get out of all at once. Depending on what the market and the major...

5 fills, 2W-1L long, 1-1 short, +520, 4600 shares How about those Gators! Makes it much nicer being a Nittany Lion fan in Buckeye Country now. I think I'll frame today's Columbus Dispatch...

3 long fills (two on test positions), +127 net on 2200 shares.

1 long winner, +290 on 1000 shares Enjoy the weekend, all. Taking my boys to a monster truck show tomorrow, so I may be deaf on Monday. I've never been to one, but I figure trucks smashing cars will be wildly entertaining to a 5 and 3 year old. With the Steelers out of the playoffs, I need...

Nice to see you back at it, Chiguy. And welcome back to the thread, lescor. Hope you stick around; you're a great benchmark for this strategy. Yesterday 4 long wins, 2 short losers, +480 on 4700 shares (3 positions were small ones on stocks I'm still testing) Today 2 wins 1 loss short, 1-0...

Took a nice extended break since the 22nd, and from the looks of it, everyone but Don did as well. I'm assuming you are going to start a 2007 thread Don, so I'll wait to post today's result.

No surprise to have no fills today. Merry Christmas to everyone celebrating it Monday.

2 long fills, +140

1 short scratch (-30 net) Couldn't play Monday or Tuesday

If I held through earnings and it reacted well to them, I'd be holding still. Tough racket holding through earnings nowadays, unless you have a nice cushion in the stock going into them.

One short, +120. Pretty disappointing given the action pre-open. My roster was full of duds today.

1 long, +92

1 short scratch.

1 long loser, -50

Yep. Seems to be that way for all the newly hybrid stocks, with a few exceptions. Wilder moves, bigger spreads. 2 long wins and a short loser today, +243

By offense I mean constantly working on finding more edges and maximizing your exploitation of those edges. Do more of what is working and have the confidence to gradually keep upping your size on strategies that work, because you know your defense (loss cutting discipline, discipline to avoid...
