Anyone buying ITMN at 40$ per share was a fool. The r/r was not there. The key with swingtrading bios is that you have to know your DD. And 99.9% of the time, I notice that the DD that is out there in the form of seekingalpha, yahoo finance, and the various messageboards is kindergarten...

I knew they were extremely likely to release positive results, and I had done massive amounts of research to support that hypothesis. It was just a matter of when. I planned on waiting until that happened. Considering that I had 147,000 shares of SPEX I pretty much didn't have a choice, as the...

It's always funny to see the haters try to take you down on any loss that you take. As my account grew, and so did the haters in number (most of whom cannot trade at all, but just like to take others down) then I finally got sick of them and stopped posting. Most of them have absolutely no...

This is the saddest, yet simultaneously one of the funniest parts :p Let me ask you this... are you consistently profitable? And if not, why do you think anyone would be asking you about your system? Do you think anyone really wants to learn the intricate details of a losing system? Could it...

This thread is pretty sad... Jinxu, you need to realize that what people are telling you is correct... you are in denial. Every time your system takes a loss (if you even have a system) then you rationalize it away, saying something wasn't right, or maybe you didn't follow the rules... On top of...

Exactly... it is not worth 5000$ for me (or anyone else who trades profitably) to teach someone their hard earned techniques that they have spent thousands of hours figuring out... 50,000$ per person, and a mininum of 5 people in a class and I would think about it. g

I think it depends on if you are trading on purely technical reasons rather than fundamental reasons. I am starting to gravitate towards more fundamentally based plays, over the 2 week to 1 month time frame. In that case, I have usually done enough DD that I am pretty sure that I know something...

Here's the smaller account (Etrade account), 112K realized for this year, about 17K unrealized in that account. The other account is larger, but is up less. Was up much more before and then got killed starting in may. g

What a loser... he is trying to make the conditions so ridiculous so he can back out of the bet on a technicality "but.... but... you didn't give me the phone number in 12 hours, so, um, the bet is off!!!" all too obvious, if you really believed in your bet, asiaprick, then you would make...

CANCEL ALL ORDERS!!!! CANCEL ALL ORDERS!!!! CANCEL ALL ORDERS!!!! g p.s. I've watched that video 20 times and it cracks me up each and every time :D

What is even more funny is that asiaprick, when confronted with someone that will take him on, keeps adding additional terms and restrictions because he realizes he is going to lose... first, he implies he is going to bet money (sorry, but saying you are going to "bet alot" to any normal...

What a loser... Asiaprick talks big and says he is willing to bet a lot of money, then when confronted with someone who is willing to take him on, he says "I never said I bet any money" lol g

WOW. I find that absolutely unbelievable. I can hardly EVER get filled on passive orders. When I am trading momo, not truly scalping, but trying to fade momo either way, I can almost never get filled on limit orders. g

It doesn't matter WHERE you send your order, as it is a whole penny order, and when it appears, no matter where it comes from, it IMMEDIATELY gets sub pennied to not be the best bid anymore. As a result, you can never be on the bid to get shares. And that is a huge disadvantage. Hopefully...

The best part about this thread is that the real traders here, the ones that DO get affected by this sub-pennying disadvantage, actually GET what is being said about why getting sub-pennied is such a disadvantage... those that think it doesn't matter, are quite frankly, clueless, and it is...

I've entered more into swing trading phase, and so I haven't traded much for a while... but I will post the outcome of this swing trade, but it could be a while... but one way or the other, it's gonna be interesting when it happens... :cool: g

Are you talking about being aggravated because you agree that it is ridiculous that some broker dealers can subpenny and not retail traders? or are you aggravated because the information the person you are quoting is totally wrong? basically, are you aggravated because you agree, or...

you're the one that said I wasn't posting a blotter... besides, don't you have paper-trading millions to be making? lol g
