A 70k bet that I can't make a 50% gain in 2009

1/16/09:

Was looking to follow up yesterday's close with some longs today, but the morning gap up might not let that happen. In the first 30 min of the day I will look for stocks that are acting weak and will look to get in short. As for the indexex I will try to strictly scalp them depending on how they move. Most likely a light trading day today.

heh...i don't do any of the crazy bets, just ones that are highly weighted in my favor. you can *definitely* do that number if you can trade prior to this.

don't think of it as 50%...just think of it as a few hundred a day (to balance the down days) and keep sticking to the stops, and it will be cake.

Thx Gaj: I agree that you have to look at it day by day. It's not a sprint, it's a marathon.
