SNDK and JBL moved against me today As it turns out I stopped out right near the top of the move of JBL. Never fun but has to be done if I am to fight another day. I did trade it again after closing out the loss but not sure if there was even a gain as the sale price was one cent above the...

Took a stop loss with JBL at the top and was killed with SNDK. - 2656

Hello Yobo, Sure I think we all do at times. I love what I do and I put myself in a position to make large gains at the sacrifice of more steady gains. My actual gains are a little more than double your calculated amount though. (even after today's nightmare) Most of the time I...

Busy day today I was up nicely for much of the day. I made a calculation error with JBL (actually one or two errors). One unfortunately was the entry (the entry could actually go either way and so I pulled the trigger) and another more important and clear error was when I received a...

Was a great day for most of it. Things fell apart with JBL and now that the market it closed I actually feel pretty good about it. I took a big hit with JBL but its due to a mistake and one that is easily fixed so my frustration went away pretty fast as I look forward to tomorrow and the new...

Fun day today. Was able to trade a new signal in full size today and while it gave me a roller coaster of a ride it was also my best trade of the day. FSYS became a lot thinner than expected and so I cut back on size after about half way through the day and didn't get aggressive on my second...

Thanks AC3, I would agree. Even intraday swings have been mostly small. I am still not trading full size on all trades but the month has been good and this year appears to be turning out to be pretty good as well. Happy Holidays to you and yours!! Robert

Hey Hermit Thanks. Crazy day thats for sure. Happy Holidays to you !! Robert

THANKS!! very cool of you as well as BB3pt and A'z up !!! I would be honored to start the 2010 PnL and if everyone is fine with me pulling back in how often I post great. If not and someone else wants to start out the 2010 that's fine as well. No worries either way. I am not going...

12/18/09 CECO what a ride CECO proved that it had more downside at the open today. I don’t trade fundamentals but I did read into this company last night and I became very comfortable with the idea of buying more at the open if weak. With over $5 in cash for every share and almost zero...

Have a good weekend everyone!!! I don't think I missed one day this year in posting (perhaps while in Disney or Tahoe maybe??). I am considering stopping everyday posting either at the end of this year or the start of my next semester but most likely at the end of this year. I do not...

I bought some C today. Not alot but enough to take a look once every few days to see how its doing. downside risk appears to be very small at this point and I normally don't like to buy stocks much less a stock that is less than $5 It must suck for anyone who bought a week ago but going...

closed out of my carryover with AIR at about even AIR was up during premarket trading and actually made it to the level I would be willing to short more but wanted to see how it opened up before committing more to the short. The peak was right about where I was willing to short more and it...

IB is showing my results from yesterday as well. Not really sure why it does that. anyway, I did make a few pennies today but not much. + 118 Holding CECO overnight unless it keeps moving up in afterhours and I will be willing to cover half as I think this will bounce...

Mixed day today Mostly a slow day of testing new signals and getting caught up. Then AIR came along and gave a great short signal and at one time I was thinking it was working out well and I even put on larger size than normal. It turned around and while thats not all that uncommon it really...

holding AIR short overnight + 209

I was not expecting much today started out with BEAT but didn’t get anywhere with it. Tried to follow along the gap up trend but it just fizzled out. + 11 I also went along for the ride with BBY and traded it in both directions today. + 225 WY was a gap up but most of the move was done...

best day of the month +1221

no complaints Today was a good example of how an informational advantage can work in your favor. OSK fell out of bed today due to news that they lost a bid with the military. While not a good thing of course I looked at the fall out and saw that it was down around 17%. As someone who has...

Still trying to make a buck before the end of the year
