Don's Openings and More for 2006

[cashonly]

Quote from lescor:

Very boring day, so I thought I'd post a screen shot of my layout for trading openings. I have 5 screens, and this shot is of the lower 3 where I watch and trade all my positions. There are enough charts and level 2 windows to watch 16 positions, but I rarely get that many fills.

The other two screens above them have IM and IRC windows open, a spreadsheet, P/L and various index charts and watchlists.

That's a lot of windows! Does your program automatically populate your L2 windows?

 

[lescor]

No, and I don't have the esignal windows linked either, so I have to type each symbol twice. Old fashioned, I know, but I'm pretty quick at it.

Yeesh. That was quite a poor open.

5 long fills, 2 wins, 3 losses, -412 net.

 

[chiguy]

4 fills / 6500 shares

3 long / 2 short / +533.00

- 1.1 / + .4%

blocked 9 of 86...

Had a program glitch, went from a "good" opening (+$600) to a slight loss (-$180)_.....bummer.

Back to it tomorrow...

[chiguy]

2 fills / 3500 shares

1 long / 1 short / +100.00

- .75 / + .75%

about as good as it was gonna get...

Net for the month of May was +30.00.

I do 1,000 shares each of about 11 issues.

I'm up about $1,000 net for the year.

Is anyone making money (after commissions) using this strategy in 2006?

If so, would you be agreeable to posting the total number of issues in your OO and the number of shares on each issue?

Thanks
