Good day to end a very good month. Tradestation did all it could do to ruin my day but I was able to make some gains in the end. + 5647 + 56987 Month

NTY continues to be a thorn in my side. Moving higher right from the open and moving pretty far. The volume in NTY totally dried up while the price moved higher. Was expecting a price drop today based on past data. This appears to be about the only real ‘leak’ in my trading and...

Hello ytr30, I use stockfinder and Tradestation to backtest. I also backtest manually trade by trade. I think there is value in looking at each trade and how it would play out. It takes a LONG time to do it that way but I think its worth it. Best to you Robert

Hi Nod, Thanks for the post and I am sorry for the late response. I spent much of the weekend working on the new computer and setting up the new monitors and nothing went fast. I hope you have a great trip !! Thanks Bob

- 678 Would you believe I actually had a great day? Finally had enough with my gap trading and closed out NTY for a big hit. Other than that little experiment that went horrific I had a good day.

Hello BostonKiller, Thanks for saying so. Very nice of you. Best to you and glad to have you in the chat Respectfully, Robert

Spent much of the day trading and scalping NTY back and forth As a result of NTY I turn in another poor day. I did actually trade it back and forth with a total of over 18K shares traded and worked up my break even point to near the closing price. for a stock that ended up only down about...

tough day but ready to go at it tomorrow.

After having traded the Hong Kong exchange and seeing the US markets trading lower I expected the US markets to open lower. I also expected NTY to be trading pre market but I don’t think any trades went off before the opening bell. NTY rocked up higher during the opening and came back only...

Had some good trades but NTY continues to be trying. - 1900

Hey AMT, guys like us don't have nearly the amount to worry that the anti gun people have...LOL I currently see this as a non issue at this stage of the game. I think it needs to be watched and just do a wait and see approach and perhaps hedge anything that is really out there and long...

Thats a really good idea. Or the QQQQ for a smaller price if you want as it tracks much the same. GREAT WEEK Nod !!! After getting beat up you can start to doubt and wonder if things will ever get better or if its the end. Way to pull through that and take home a gain for the week...

DSQ, a simple "my minds made up and I am not going to change" would have done fine. I don't think your rant actually rates a response. Enjoy your worsening crisis while it lasts. your comment about doctors reminds me of the Redding Hospital scandel a few years ago where over 150 people...

I understand that after a politician gives a power point presentation there is no need for debate for some. What I do know is that up here in the northwoods of Wisconsin we have been covered by ice at times AND covered by jungle during other times. What I don't know is that scientists...

As I understand it with my broker (IB) you would be charged for one trade. I would think that most brokers would be the same and would question any that did not treat it as one trade. After all the actual trade in the exchange could literally be one trade for 200 shares and its just a matter...

I started a deathwatch for companies that I think will file/fail within 12 months. First on the list is BBI blockbuster. I do not have an axe to grind with them and I am currently a customer. As I wrote yesterday - Blockbuster put on my death watch. With NFLX moving further in...

Very good point but are you sure he didn't see it ?? I sold my rental properties in 2004 because I thought we were peaking. If some kid from the Northwoods of Wisconsin could see it I have to wonder how Greenspan missed it?? Five years later I just started looking for rentals to...

Its really smart to be getting ready at this stage of the game. Spending time now to prepare will put you in front of those that wait to try to figure it out. I don't think cap & trade is going to pass in the US. I now its on the agenda and Obama just gave the legislation a big push in...

Today started out like so many but with the market up in the futures trading I was expecting to get some trades today. I wasn’t disappointed either. I was given two stocks that gapped up and I traded them both. I also received several signals during the day but ran into issues with...
