Don's openings and more for 2005

forgot to change my skew...seems like every day i figure out a new way to hurt myself...

gots lots of fills...-147.00

mcd got me also -160.00

seems like every day there is a boogey man.....
 
I "cut" MCD from the team as of this week. He'd been killing me this month, which made him unprofitable for the year. Granted, a big chunk of it was my own error on one trade, but even looking back on the year's stats showed I wasn't making much on him. It got to the point where I almost dreaded getting an OO fill in him, which is usually a good sign that I shouldn't have him in my list. What he did today was brutal. Must have been the WSJ article on Pershing Square's investment.

Today 4 long, 1 short, 4 wins, +257
 
mess up in my xl somewhere sending orders using wrong limit prices. Very costly: 400 in commission and about 300 loss for a loss of ove 700 USD.
 
Added more stocks, "willy-nilly" - 6 fills, 4 winners, 2 losers (stupid DIS)...+$240, shoulda been a lot more.....I will "refine" a bit....I like only 3 or 4 fills (not that I can't handle it, just tough with "new" stocks...don't know how they trade yet).

Anyway, have a great weekend everyone.....

Don
 
ANother down week for my opening. Very choppy and inconsistent, one day up and one day down, but more $ on down day. Was down 700 yesterday and up only 200 USD today.
