For the most part it was an uneventful day. I did trade SYNA to the long side which is unusual for me. SYNA was just pounded today for guiding lower than expected. It did have higher earnings this quarter and the PE is respectable but the street did not like the thought of lower future...

Today felt more normal for the first time in a while I still had some major challenges though and AMSC gave me a run for my money. I would guess a lot of shorts were just crushed today as that stock kept moving higher and higher. Even my twitter alert would have been painful for anyone that...

Well earned IMHO I might add !! Best Robert

Hello Neke, thanks for your kind words and your post. You were not the only one shorting WTFC as I was right there with you feeling that pain. That was one of the biggest moves I have seen for a while. I just started looking at some of the lower ave volume stocks and that one did give me...

I went long SYNA today into the close. ( I may add in AH or on Monday into weakness) Appears to me the stock was simply pounded on way more than the guidance justified. Granted the stock may have been a little higher than some to start out with but the PE was nothing crazy either. I...

Hello Bolimomo, Yes and I stand corrected. right you are. As the terms are so often used as the same "Investment books/ trading books" I did not separate the two Respectfully, Robert

Lots of good advise in this thread. I will try to add to it and hopefully someone will gain from that. 1. I humbly disagree that books should not be read about trading. I would very much agree that most of them are not worth the paper they are written on but that doesnt mean all are bad...

Getting back on track today. Results make it appear a lot easier than today was though. + 2727

Hi RC, Thanks for taking the time to post. I would totally agree that overall shorting can be more risky and especially so if you don't manage your sizing of the trades. I for sure have had my trials with being a short. I have taken many hits but surprisingly enough, LEH which was a...

Hey Nodoji, I just wanted to say best of luck tomorrow (and beyond) with your ES trading. I hope it goes off to a great start and continues to get better and better. I know your dedicated putting in time day after day of watching the charts and reading. and always remember this is a...

Interesting day today I started out the day with ELRN and what I thought was a slow and conservative trade. Then as the stock went critical IB ran out of shares for me to short with while it moved higher without me. I was able to get some more shares to short after the main move was done and...

Hello Jack, yeah you probably made the right choice to avoid that one. I usually stay out of the way in the last 30 or so minutes but I ended up stepping in it. When it rains it pours sometimes. I am still finding good trades and hope to be able to keep that up Best to you and...

LOL yeah I guess if we could read minds we wouldn't be trading.... (or maybe we would) Easy Language for TS

does this appear to be correct? Average(Volume[5],10) for the volume 10MA starting from 5 bars ago ?

I would like to get the value (syntax) for the average trading volume of a stock. I would like the moving average volume starting with 5 bars ago? Thanks in advance

JAZZ punished me dearly in the opening. JAZZ didnt work out well at all. – 9734 CI didnt give full target but for a trade that didnt work out it wasn’t bad. covered near the bell so that I would not carry overnight. + 585 WCG was news related earnings release after hours trading. +...
