    ANNOUNCEMENT- seeking traders interested in overturning the PDT rule

    The rule is incoherent and totally unjust. It has no merit whatsoever for the customer/trader or for the Industry members. And in practice its "enforcement" is totally distorted since no broker is applying the 6% test before applying the 3/5 rule, and what retail member wants a customer...

    well that's what we get for changing our mind too quickly overnight and getting psyched out by expiry pressures. I should know better than to get shaken out on expiry Thursday/Friday! The long OIH 130 calls (march) went up $3+ overnight. First thing I did was scratch them at b/e but then...

    My mother is a Life Master bridge player yet she never attended college. She doesn't have an mba series 7 or finance or law degrees. But I bet she'd make a great trader. Bridge is a great game. I am not very good since I have played so infrequently since taking evening classes at Francis W...

    journal thoughts for the long weekend Market psychology has been a large component of my trading and my trading calls/ideas over the past 15 years. I always found Todd Harrison to be humble, introspective, restrained and thus a very good teacher for my style of trading. I have not been on...

    APOL well --- APOL did trade back to 59+ as we discussed, and analyzed on another ET Journal (Brave New World)! The analysis was right on so far as seeing the bullish engulfing pattern (on weekly chart) back on January 23rd as a key st reversal, and so far as the saying resistance would be...

    well as expected the NDX was "manipulated" back to 16750 - or perhaps it was a pure random coincidence? So we are holding MNX 16750 Calls over the weekend. PnL -175

    NDX looks like NDX may get pinned/unwound back down to near 16750 so will hold my MNX March 16750 calls in all accounts and see how this shakes out Tuesday.

    sorry I didn't know you were so sensitive! :eek: Just to clarify ----- my earlier comments on AAPL all along were, to-wit:: 1. AAPL would "get hammered" AFTER earnings and see 65 2. I admitted I was "early". So what ? It's how you end up that counts, i.e. bottom line. Many great...

    both MNX and GOOG positions looking good for tomorrow ! Keeping our toes crossed we can exit at the open with some decent dough. The absurdity of the PDT rule for as long as this account is below 25,000 which won't be long IS that one can exit one strike during the day and if they're a...
