I carried a few shares of SMTC overnight and I exited way before I wanted to. I was getting so many other trading signals that I covered more to clear that trade off than for the risk that the trade would go against me. It was a very busy opening and I was glad that my computers didn’t...

Good day. Was on my A game for the most part. + 8381

hey Jack, Thanks for saying so. I want to wish you the best with your trades that you have on. With the feds puttting on their dog and pony show tomorrow that they call stress test results you should be in pretty good shape at least until the results are fully out. Its not like the...

My understanding is that retail orders have priority over the MMs and thats one of the reasons why retail traders are not allowed to play both sides of the market at the same time. I could very well be wrong about it and if so would like to know. I also believe that some brokers allow...

Hello Belize, yes, all todays gains where in the account you wired too. oh wait, I guess the wire missed the deadline.... Sorry Nod, looks like you just missed the cutoff on that one. Thanks a bunch for your well wishes. Very cool of you to take the time from your vacation to say so...

I carried over some SFD from yesterday. That turned into a nice refund of some of the hit I took. SFD + 426 Much of the rest of the day was pretty slow until around noon time when I received some signals. Then almost at once my radar screen lit up giving me several trades at one time...

Nice day RED !!!! I had a good day as well. + 6560

Came into the office today ready to be on my A game. The overall market was uncommitted from what I could see. I also found in pre market trading BBG which had gapped up. unlike some of the gap ups that I have tried and failed with in the past this one had my new setup. Went up even after...

Hello Bigpipn, cool handle Thanks for posting your kind words. I am not sure that I embrace an open loss but I will say its normally part of the plan. Thanks again and best of trading to you Robert

Hello Jack, Thanks for saying so. Monday was actually not that bad. It was knowing all weekend that Monday could be so ugly that was tough. I traded better today and need to keep improving. Best to you and thanks again Robert

i turned a great day into a good day during the afternoon. + 2885

Hello Jegnyr, Wow, thank you very much. It was a very strange day yesterday indeed. First the car crash that put me late into the office and then seeing what I feared would be the case all weekend. I spent a lot of time and did a lot of work over the weekend which was not easy with...

My day starts out with a car crash on the way to the office only to get worse from there. On my way to the office a car turned left in front of me and I had the green light. Not a good idea to do in a small compact when I drive a big SUV. This caused me to rush into the office and I could...

one of the better things to happen today was the car crash i was in on the way to the office. At least that was not my fault. What was my fault was holding ANR over the weekend. Gave a lot of the gains this year back on an overnight trade but my style is going to give me outsized hits once...

Hey NYOB, Glad to hear that, good work !! I hope that the scalping is treating you well. I have backed off from it after the SEC raised the tax rate. I am still hittting 100 K share days once in a while but would prefer not to as it adds up. Best to you Robert

Hello Michael, Thanks for saying so. Really is nice to hear. I didn't forget your question/post but I needed some time to be able to answer. I also thank you for letting me know about the blog having an email issue. I probably should have figured it out by the fact I was not getting...

End of the week and start of a new month and I was ready. Even Tradestation worked well today. I had some nice trades and I had a loser. I was able to see where I could improve my setup signal and worked on that for much of the day. I am carrying over much of ANR as I was looking for a...

Have a good weekend everyone + 5142

Last day of the month and as I come into the office I have high hopes. My hopes are put on hold as I fight with Tradestation for quotes and scanning. During some of the best minutes of trading Tradestation is down. I guess it happened to many as others in the chat experienced the same...
