Confessions of a successful trader

[Petro]

Unfortunately just a tiny 2500, but I'll take it.

 

[StLouisTrader]

Cern sold at 69.99, left with mdrx (trying to work), eclp (trying to not work)

 

[Petro]

Nice fill on the CERN, within a penny of the HOD

 

[StLouisTrader]

ECLP sold for a loss, I made a mistake of getting too much size on that one (relative to volume - i thought it might trade more today), compounding the issue of the idea not working. MDRX still acts ok, running overall about breakeven for the day.

 

[StLouisTrader]

Sold the mdrx for a (not so great) avg of 18.55, daily PnL about 6k

 

[Petro]

Of course they ramped it up at the EOD

 

[StLouisTrader]

Yep. My day was not the stuff dreams are made of but I'll take a non-losing day anytime.

 

[Petro]

Agreed, eeked out a small profit today myself, always makes the weekend a little better to finish the week on a high note.

 

[El Caballo]

Maybe not a day to base a movie on, but still 6,000 is a great payday, even given the position sizes and associated risk. Again, thanks for your opening your books for this journal.
