Jem- I tried getting ahold of you via PM. I am living right near you now, maybe down the block who knows. Send me an email brandon.fredrickson@gmail.com Brandon

WOW, I bet no one ever thought of that idea. I daytrade three to five times a month to avoid the perception that this could be in play. The days I do daytrade are just to keep me doing it and whatnot. Otherwise the trading I do is intermediate term type stuff. Brandon

For my entry on MNST I chose $25.83 as the breakout point. The reason for this is that the base had become pretty tight and that was the current top of it. I always like it when I can get a breakout setup like this that occurs under the HOD. The reason for that is that as you hit the new high...

I didnt say what day after lunch right :) http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=743482 above is the URL for the chart posted. This is a good example of of what I'm always looking for. I like to see a stock with a good up gap that does not fill. The old saying is that...

You know in real life there is always the threat and danger, no matter how small, that someone will haul off and smack you for being a jackass. It's too bad it does not transend to the internet, I think it might make places like this a lot more of a pleasant way to spend time. To Cash asking...

Im quiet sorry that things did not work out for you in our chatroom. I do hope that everyone who comes in gets a positive experiance from it, but I know that is not possible. Some will win, some will lose. As for the plays I give here on ET, all are given before the fact. If they fail, and...

Its only a few people really. After having started out as a fan ddog has been chasing me around for a few years now. Its like the crazy stalker ex girlfriend thing. Im almost flattered :) Besides I took one of those free personality profile things and it said one of my weakness is that I need to...

Must be that. Funny thing is that at the end of the month I wont be there anymore. And I stopped making money on it, any money, 3 months ago. DOH! Brandon

Same thing happens to me all the time. You just have to move on. I had been watching PIXR for a trade above $50 and then missed it.

Im more interested in being an attention whore. :D

[09:54] <brandon> 09:54:21 STOCK DAY TRADE: BUY SETUP MNST above 25.83. Stops under 25.50

On Wednesday the markets were mixed. The Nasdaq Composite gained 0.88 points, closing at 1990.22 while the S&P500 gained 0.82 points and closed at 1172.53. Volume was not all that heavy, while the advance to decline line remained terrible with decliners leading advancers more than 2 to 1. The...

On Monday the NASDAQ Composite lost 0.28 points to close at 2007.51 while the S&P500 closed at 1183.78, losing 5.87 points. Volume overall was lower, but I do feel this is not significant following the quad witching on Friday. We saw 1.85 billion shares on the NYSE and on NASDAQ 1.65 billion...

On Friday the NASDAQ Composite Index lost 8.63 points to close at 2007.79. The S&P500 lost 0.56 points, closing at 1189.65. Friday was quadruple witching which occurs when stock, futures, index and stock futures options close on the same day. This occurs four times per year and accounted for the...

The trend is up until its down and its down until its up, unless its sideways. I don't think the debate over a trending vs non trending market has too much to do with a traders ulimate success. A number of successful traders believe in assorted forms of bullshit, but they are still...

I'm messing around with a new program that allows me to make a video of the stuff I'm doing. Right now I don't have a streaming server, so its slow to download, but if you are interested check out this link on the PNRA trade. Let me know what you think of it...
