Quote from dwwu:

I have been following ET since 2000 but this is my first post regarding my experience. One of my inspirations to trading stocks was reading Hitman's trading journal.

I turned profitable in 2004 averaging 3k a month for the last 7 months of 2004 in my retail account.

I decided to join Bright because Don had that great deal on ET and his consistent profits in his OO thread.

I will be swing trading end of day now while I work a 2nd job to help recover from this drawdown.

I agree that I should have talked with Don alone before posting this. I don't know if I would be taken seriously if I did though. I just emailed him with the information and I will let you guys know the results if you guys want.

I responded to your email, and since you're local, come on by and you, Bob and I will discuss the whole thing. Just for the "record" it shows that you were actually ahead of the game at the end of January when you put up enough money to receive 100% of the profits, thus switching your status to full trading member.

In any event, come by to chat at your convenience! I'm sure we can resolve everything.

Don and Bob

The "non-silent" may not be as great a minority as you may think, or have people believe. Interested to see how THIS all plays out...will the "spin" and damage control come fast and furious?

Tuesday only $100. 23 Test pilots, down about $80, not bad since one guy thought he covered, but lost $72. First day of live openings. Win/loss percentage ok, just a couple of mistakes. I'll keep you posted.

Only $110 this morning. "Test Pilots" net up 9 cents (1 broken screen cost 56 cents, can't really blame him for that)...would have been better. And "WILL BE" darnit...LOL....

Are you saying your 23 college students combined netted 9 cents between them after commissions? So if they all traded 100 share positions and after they were all flat the profit added up to 9 dollars?

17 of these "students" are from the Community College (you know how the "older folks" are....still having problems pointing and clicking, LOL).

I'm moving up the share size for the good ones, staying at 100 or 200 for those having troubles.....heck, it's just a 2 week free trial just to see what all this is really about. Bob and I spend some time with them, answer questions, and all of that stuff.

No risk to them, and we actually did well the last time (not great, just ok, didn't lose any of our money, LOL again)......

The UNLV students are from the MBA program, hopefully they'll show promise (not that the MBA itself would matter much in trading, but at least they're committed and diligent.....I would guess).

Don

Oh, yeah, and my opening was $170 today, not $110
.(that will certainly help...) :D
 
Don, no offense, but what is the point of even trading this strategy anymore if your typical profitable days are only around $100? Not to mention that you probably are quoting gross numbers....

There is more opportunity in finding a liquid stock that moves and placing a good trade on a 1000 lot!!
