    Record of my Trades

    I looked at SOHU today and it looks like its going straight up. I wrote a couple of June 85 and 90 calls to fade it without going nuts on the amount. While it did base nicely just below 60 it climbed to the point where its getting dangerous to keep buying without a correction. That correction...

    Reg T VS Portfolio Margin

    Thanks Shreddog, I applied to have the change over on Friday. Hopefully it will be done Monday or Tuesday. I have also noticed that the margin requirement appears to be lower with my current covered calls but excess liquidity is actually lower. Not sure yet what to make of that.

    I have a strategy... where do I screen for it?

    You may want to look at Tradestation. its the only one that I know of that you can screen in real time 1000 stocks that fit a formula that you want. Its what I use to find stocks to trade. I use IB to execute the trades as the commissions are a lot less. As long as you open an account with...

    Trader P/L 2008

    Crazy start to the day. In under four minutes of my first trade I was up 1400+ and after the last three days I really could use it. Had a couple of more nice ones and then sat on the chat for the rest of the day as several setups "came close"but didnt get there. have a great weekend...

    Record of my Trades

    Today started out great. within six and half mins I was up 1400+ with YRCW. That sure didnt hurt my confidence any. I had two more trades that were both winners, just not to the degree of YRCW. EMN S:6b + 284 SWN S:6b + 177 YRCW S:6b +1433 I watched oil move up over $3 today to hit...

    Night Traders Unite!

    Looks like some real interest by the looks of the thread. I have an IB account and would like to trade Asian stocks. Any suggestions on getting real time quotes? Perhaps something that works well with ninja trader? Thanks

    Record of my Trades

    a losing day but all in all a very good day. closed out of about half of UAUA and wrote May 15 calls against the 45 units that I have. With the option premium my average cost is now 14.46. Any price above 15 and I max out my profit of $2430. Any price below 14.46 and I start to lose money...

    Reg T VS Portfolio Margin

    Hello Shreddog, Thanks for the reply. Does that include both longs and shorts. For example I am Long a stock (only one without a short) and the margin is actually a lot less than Reg T. As a result I have held back on switching. thanks

    When Will Crude Hit $40/barrel again?

    Gotta go with BylowsellHi on this one. Since when does a product go up forever or a tree grow to the sky?? No one even mentioned a game changer like a breakthrough in batteries or how about bio-fuels like algae, ethanol (cellulose), or some other replacement and/or a new form of power as...
