NielsenDK, thanks for bringing this article up to our attention!!! Idiots like this need to be called out for this kind of crap. I for one told this obvious know nothing what I thought of him and his idea that the financial sector should shrink via a comment on his article. I suggest others...

I traded AAPL for about three hours after the close. What a ride that was. First I went long in the 77 range and then covered way too soon. Turned around and went short and was up a really nice amount and it continued upward. Ended up giving some back after a lot of scalping but...

Today was a tough day due to allowing SAY to whipsaw me around and while I closed out my long near the bottom for the day I was happy to get rid of it. I largly wanted to scalp it for small gains but didn’t give it enough time to work its way around. - 939 I missed shorting SQNM calls...

It took three hours of after hours trading AAPL to get me above water from what I did during normal trading but at least I get to go home with a small gain for the day. + 117

Your welcome to join myself and other traders in the ET chat where we talk about trading all day long. I myself understand your desire to trade mostly a mechanical system as that is what I do in large part. Your welcome to take a look at my journal and blog to get an idea of how I trade...

Good, let them. Lets close our bases around the world and get out of Iraq while we still can on our terms. While many believe it can't happen, there will be a point where we can not continue to borrow and will have to start repaying what we owe

I for one am in favor of this tax. I am actually really surprised that so many on ET are against this tax. The wonderful thing about this tax is it appears so small and so removed from what the public would consider a large tax that it may have a chance. I have a democrat rep and two...

had a pretty good day today of scalping as I didn't get any real signals. + 509

Good job NoDoji !!!! Nodoji left me + 509 and I for one am thankful as I can use all the help I can get.

APOL is getting close to a pivot point and I am currently looking for an entry to sell OTM calls.

Day started out with an attempt to trade SAY but IB saying that the contract could only be closed and no new positions could be added long or short. Even with the news and loss in value it was surprising that IB was going to just walk away from allowing traders to trade it. I also scalped MS...

busy day + 530

Well we knew that APOL would gap higher and I took that into account when I carried over from yesterday but I was a little suprised that it was going to open at almost 87 and I guess the rest of the market was surprised as well. APOL fell to under 85 right away. I traded APOL all day and while...

oh yeah baby, its alllll mine........ Have a good weekend everyone !!! + 13

Started out as a refreshing day. Without having any carry overs I was in no rush to get to the office. The carefree attitude went away pretty fast as I started trading right away. I had several signals today and scalped a lot of different stocks today. I started the day out with MF and...

Good day today. Still trading APOL as I write this so who knows how I will be tomorrow...... + 2639
