    I am giving my shares "one way" In reality I am trading twice that. For example today I traded 6000 shares round trip. I pay .9 cents per share. And I usually go up a few bullets(married puts) which also adds to my fees.

    7200 shares(one way) $215 Gross $6 Net Was down a few hundred off the open with OPG strategy. Had to find a few decent trades to get flat for the day. I consider days like this a victory. Making back money sometimes feels better than making money.
