No fills today...but I did by CPN pre-opening (yeah, I know, I preach not to trade off hours...I just couldn't resist buying some at 85 cents, LOL).....made a dime or so.
Back at it tomorrow..

No fills and the Steelers got crushed yesterday. Damn.
utt ohhh,
look who broke the rules....
Fun one today...proof of openings being "Idiot Proof"....
Sold TWX at 17.95....it looked "strong" ----
Tried to pay 18.00 for half.....bought half at 17.91 with 9 cents price improvement.
Saw 17.89 bid, put in 17.91 bid...
It looked strong again, so I tried to pay 17.95...
Bought both at 17.89 (now long).
Tried to "scratch" the extra buy, sell at 17.89...
Sold at 17.91 with price improvement.
Tried as hard as I could to lose money, but made $120 anyway.
LOL

that way by far the most sketchy opening for me ever. (ok, so this is my 8th day doing it.)
2 Long Fills both winners. CCE and COH
5 Short fills: 2 Winners (AMP, MMC)
3 Losers: (STZ. MCD, TSG)
$410 net on 600 shares a piece.
AMP was crazy, thin as a wire.... went against me a bit. held it then the big tank came.
MCD way also crazy, went way against me... held it only lost a little... yeesh!
So the big winners were: AMP 37 cents avg, COH 27 cents avg, MMC, 12 cents avg.
Not sure whether I should pul AMP from my list permently... It should be a little thicker for it's avg volume...
have a great day everyone.

FWIW, I took MCD out of my openings a few months ago.
