+$123 Day +$223 Week +$866 Month Well you can tell I've done little trading this month!

Technically speaking, in October 2007 the party ended and as a result of our sinful ways we were placed in a hand basket and told to go to Hell. Despite several valiant attempts to repent and reverse our trip, the downward spiral continued, culminating in our arrival at the devil's doorstep...

I always appreciate your kind and helpful words, RN! It's amazing how detached I am paper trading. I have a fear that I will think differently somehow, or think too much, most likely when I go live with ES. I still do that when trading stocks; thinking instead of acting quickly and either...

+ $14 Could've been a frightening start to the day: Saw STEC moving down early in pre-market and thought about shorting it. Then I remembered the last time I offered STEC pre-market and it was snapped up quickly and made quite a run on the open, so I decided to wait. Best decision of my...

Read the reviews last night and couldn't resist buying the book!

+ $14 Stopped out of overnight CL swing short. Paper traded ES rest of the day with my improved chart setup. Reviewed it all after the close and though I had a 14 pt gain taking small moves within the ranging channel, I hesitated to take the best signal of the day, leaving an additional...

I'm using 5 min candle chart with 20-period MA as well. Looked at all kinds of stuff and it all boiled down to this pure simplicity.

I've done very little trading lately and a lot of dedicated study, especially of trend following, using the swings from overbought to oversold (or between S/R levels as the case may be) on the daily charts. I've spent a huge amount of time paper trading ES and watching its price action in...

Had a few limit offers missed and didn't chase. Swing short on CL @ 73.29.

No trades except a swing trade CL short.

Does anyone know why SYNA had such a large selloff recently on no news? Technically they hit a couple of lower highs and then the selling began. Technically they are at the trend line low (if you start from December lows; from Feb lows, the trend line is now broken). Is this a reaction to...

When I first met traders in ET's chat room and told them I was in Tucson, they asked if I was JH's neighbor. "How would I know?" I replied. And the answer had something to do with a llama. I've yet to locate the llama that will lead me to trader Jack's, but have never once given up hope.

I see you've found me, but I'm a "she" not a "he", and you can never be sure if I really trade...

So like, say, short GMCR on 5/1 and wait 2 weeks, or short DDRX on 4/22 and wait 2 weeks, or short ADY on 5/18 and wait 2 weeks, or short STEC on 5/13 and wait 2 weeks, or... oh never mind that's what stops are for and real traders always honor their stops before honoring the "wait 2 weeks" rule.

+ $56 Offered 27.50 STEC on open, missed by .12 cents, then it bounced hard just below 27.00 and I pulled the offer to wait for further action. Offered 28.04 STEC on run up, figuring momentum would take it through that level then pull back. It hit 28.00 on the nose and dropped quickly...

+ $56 Just 2 trades, mainly studying ES still.

Humpy, don't feel so bad that Geez is only up 44% this year. He has a regular job and only trades part time, so he should be able to survive this difficult year :eek:

From your trading roomies...

I do not believe Neke ever bought 2000 of any option.
