BIG GREEN CANDLE, BABY! GO MDR, GOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Broke right out over $2. WOO-HOOOOOO!

No, I am all out of missiles. Plus I would never shoot one at a ship, unless it was a pirate ship. Yeah I was up $320 a while ago, now only up $160 but that's okay. I need another $700 to be above PDT. NE is leading the way this morning. That is good to see. I actually had thought that I would...

There is usually some minor damage from a major hurricane strike but rarely is there fundamental structural damage unless it is a very powerful storm. Anyway I don't think rebuilding or repair is a major part of McDermott's business. They have always been all about new builds, usually very large...

Just had to check in for the market close. Nice. I am feeling a little better about this trade. Just 3 minutes earlier it was up $1099 but I won't let myself feel too bad with only $944. Another $800 day and I will be trading again, without robbing my checking account. I am actually not all THAT...

Up $182 at the bell. A nice start for the day. Oops took a down bounce while I was typing. Oops bounced back up. Well I am in this trade for the next several months I think so I will just shut down my TWS and go on about my day.

I don't have either one. Maybe it is just not in the Linux version yet? I know my screen is way too crowded for stuff like that and it would really piss me off.

One of my earliest memories that remains stuck in my head is also the only time I ever saw my Mother cry. I asked her what was the matter. She was sitting on the floor in front of the radio. She said that President Kennedy had just been shot. I distinctly remember not saying a word to anybody...

LOL You are very very right about that but we have been together over two years now. Still haven't had our first argument yet. She tolerates all my hobbies and activities, even had a workshop built for me. I got three fermenters on the brewstand doing their thing. I meant to say "dining room...

Thanks. I am under PDT limit right now and it is not really a good time to top up the account. We are looking to buy a cheap double to rent out, cause GF wants to get into rental properties, and I want us to go halfsies on at least the down payment. For trading, I am just sitting on my three oil...

350% return in a month? And you had to stop due to unemployment? What happened to the money you made trading stocks? I don't get it. If I was tripling my money every month, no way would I hold a regular job that would interfere with my trading. Moot point since I am retired, but yeah something...

What IS your experience? Trading stocks? Forex? Futures, Options? Get where? Get $30k in your brokerage account? I would just transfer it from checking when you have made some money working. Are you in the U.S.? If so, I would recommend IB, that's who I use, for a brokerage. There are others...

Stupid market. down $159. TVIX is up over $16, TQQQ is down around $58. Well, at least the market got beat up more than my stocks. That is a good sign. But I was really getting to like passing by my office and looking in at the P&L today. Well, today is supposed to be a brew day so I think I...

Well now. Looks like there is some interest in MDR. MDR is really pulling its weight for me today. Up $501 so far for the day but it is bouncing around a lot. I hope to finish the day $600 up. A few more days and I will be a trader again.

Premarket my three oil stocks fell a good bit this morning but picked back up after the bell, led by MDR. At 1107 NY time I am +$256 for the morning, with a lot of up and down. My $6500 unrealized loss on the portfolio in this trade has now fallen to $5600 and while I expect fits and starts with...

Maybe my three oil stocks are finally turning around. I had the right idea, that oil was depressed and had lots of room to go back up and that the time was nigh, but I misread the price, thinking it was at or near the bottom. It wasn't. These stocks refused to follow my logic, and slid down down...
