I didnt give you grief, you asked for opinions and I gave you one with which you actually agreed. It was a great pick just your entry was hasty and your exit too early considering how much downside you were willing to take. [B] All you have to do is ask yourself where your downside exit...

You're hilarious. You want to see real big NYSE winners, take a look at WLT, OS, MT etc. Over 300% yearly returns. Take a look through the pink sheet/bulletin board winners if you want to see serious returns. IPS, MON oh please. Just forget it, you're completely missing the point. You look...

10,000 stocks, 70% of which are untradeable so let's be realistic. Have a look through some of these stocks, I know I have a few times when I make my stock filters. Use some common sense, if everyone starts cutting losses quick while attemtping to catch those few big wins, the stocks simply...

Same story. Just like intraday range can get cut down so can monthly range. If too many people jump on board of the "lot of small losses and a few huge wins" train, it will all collapse. Like I said, if it's that simple, then just run a hundred computer programs that cut out very quick with...

I don't buy it, most traders get bled to death. Small losses, few bigs wins, that is a simple computer program that could do that. Why not not just make random entries with a set stop loss and a trailing stop loss for winning trades. Hey I think I found the holy grail. Get real guys, the...

I'm guessing the bids to hit were 30-50 cents away from the last price. Quite a price to get in short.

Auto traders that go for penny profits based on technical entries do benefit from this new rule.

Messing with your hormonal glands is a guaranteed way to create serious health complications in the future. BTW, sugar messes with all your glands so no wonder that an overconsumption of sugar leads to so many problems. Hey since you have done body building you should know that it is not...

Sounds like a good scheme regardless, short interest is already quite high. I think the conspiracy idea is valid, put on your tinfoil hats, cross your fingers and buy buy buy for the rocketship ready to take off.

That's what I expect but what about the thinner stocks. Might be able to set off sell stops in their wide spreads.

What little guy? Whole market is just hedgies & daytraders, half of which just go around the uptick. The ones actually getting hurt by this are the conversions and ESSEX, as well as expert abusers of the uptick rule. Not sure if anyone actually benefits.

Some good stocks on that list. CAH, huh. Should be interesting to see how this acts on the next news day. UVN is another interesting one, it's been getting pushed down by shorts for the last few weeks, let's see what happens on May 2nd.

Word. Things have changed a lot from his times though, but the basics of reading the NYSE tape still remains about how the specialist is about to do his next screw which is basically what he tries to teach. Although these slimebags have degraded themselves to penny fighting the daytraders...

LOL ok, well I'll play along and pretend that you actually trade, Mr. James Stock/Dr.Trader/Romeo/Manolo. Meanwhile, try to get it through your head that this new rule change is a key development for scalpers and may turn the world of many upside down.

Try to gain an understanding of the short sale mechanics, let alone actual trading experience before making that statement. I can't say with 100% certainty but I side with SIZE. Uptick rule is smth that was exploited and is an inneffieciency that was used as a money making opportunity. Big...

Buy low, sell high. Just do it over and over again. Come on man, it's EASY.

From your other post it sounds like you are way ahead of the curve so just keep at it. While looking for a job, do some more trading and see how it goes. This market is rough, not the time to jump into it full-time, you're better off working a full time regular job. See if you can automate...

Agreed, seems like the inheritance from the baby boomers is finding its way to the market. Come on guys, encourage this brave soul. Trade NYSE, you'll make tons of money ftrade. PM for a list of great stocks where the specialist just gives out free money.

What exactly do you mean by blowup? I've always thought that meant a total cleaning of the account, meaning you just ended you trading career. Some of you are mentioning bad losses & bad drawdown days, everyone has those, but someone wiping out their account in one day, that's another story...

WORD!
