One small short win, +70

Yeesh. That was quite a poor open. 5 long fills, 2 wins, 3 losses, -412 net.

I think I remember a post by mschey a while back talking about this and saying in general it wasn't profitable, at least back then (maybe a couple of years ago.) Perhaps doing it only with those fills that go immediately in your direction by a certain threshold, say 20-30 cents or so...

1 short scratch. Held up until I finally bailed, and then went 20 cents my way. Of course next time I'll be even more patient and it will gap against me...:D

2 long, 1 short, all modest wins, +200 net

No fills yesterday. Today 1 long fill, -90 Bizzare the number of long fills on the board today given a gap up open.

1 long win, 1 short loss, totally opposite of what I'd expect given the open. My stocks have been acting nuts the last couple of days. -125 net A good week petered out at the end.

Scratch today on 1 long and 1 short. Let the long round trip on me or it would have been an adequate day. Tried to let it run after a nice opening surge but it reversed like a banshee...

Thanks, I'll check it out. Checked Yahoo a couple of minutes ago and it seems to have changed back to the old format, so who knows what happened. What I like about Yahoo Finance is that you can create a portfolio list and it will just display the headline links pertaining to stocks on the...

1 long loser (somehow), -220. Patience burns me again. Got pennied on a couple of others that would have been nice winners had I been filled. Yahoo Finance has changed its format so you can't get more than the last few hours worth of news consolidated for the stocks on your list. You used to...

1 long win, +280.

Thanks. Maybe it was a fluke. Or a reversion to the mean. I underperformed last week :D

4 long wins, 1 short win, +770 net Left quite a chunk on the table, too. I'm sure we'll have a few happy faces in the OPG community today...

1 long scratch, 1 short win, +280 Pretty much a scratch week for me in OPGs

8 longs, 6 scratches, 2 small losses, -172 net Death by a thousand cuts today. The fills were holding up despite the market sliding, in which case I typically leave them alone and give them a chance to work, but it didn't work today. Could have played a couple a little better, but there...

1 short loser, 1 long loser, 1 long scratch, -310 net

3 longs (1 scratch, 2 losses), 2 short wins, +70.50 net. Pretty disappointing as today was "Give Sucre a Partial On His Exit and Then Move the Stock Against Him" day. Three of my stocks did that to me today. Would have been nice otherwise.

4 long (3 wins 1 loss), 1 short loser, +125 A nice day if not for KO, which just earned a ban from my OPG list. Rarely been filled on it this year, and the performance of those fills has been dog poo since February.

1 small quick short, only +50.

Didn't participate yesterday. Today 1 short loser, -183. Would have been much worse had it been a full position. Best Buy was indeed just that at the open today. Should have pulled it with the rest of my retailers...
