How many stocks can you cover per day?

Should the number of stocks daily traded be limited? Not necessary, the importance is the opportunities lying down on the flow that your system can detect that it has a good chance to make money. The system filter could be designed to be reasonable to not catching too much opportunities to avoid over trading.

LOL, classic. I've seen similar "how to" diagrams in japan...but that's the best, I can't imagine some dumbass standing on top like that.
 
what's wrong with a 15 inch monitor? it is a laptop!. I travel a lot. do you think i have to bring 3 monitors with me. i am now hiring more people for my business and may add 2 for trading.

earning $30k in the last 4 days using $200k to $400k leverage. i posted my trades almost in real time. today i made $10 profit on BOBJ, AKAM, BIDU, and HSOA.

You can calculated P/L yourself. I still keep 4500 shares of BOBJ 15000 shares of HSOA overnight. Everything else is closed. You can see that I earned $10K+ on only 4 stocks. AKAM, BIDU, BOBJ, HSOA

TRT and ACY were to long term buys, not for day trading.

i understand your point, but i found it is extremely difficult to trade more than 3 stocks. i also confirmed this from other earlier posts. i guess we can call this FOCUS TRADING as the FOCUS in FOCUS INVESTING - make a 5-10 stock portfolio enough to weather any risk storm and focus on only the extreme returns.
 
Quote from HolyGrail:

Yesterday he made the following recommendation.



TRT did not have 1 share traded until about noon yesterday. It ended the day with 1200 shares traded. Today it traded 300 shares. Yes what a perfect stock for day trading. You could trade this up and down against yourself.:D

ACY same story. Traded 1200 shares today, and 0 yesterday. It's a SUPER stock so everyone PLEASE climb aboard before you miss out on this huge opportunity.

Thank you 2manywhiners for telling it like it is.

I think you have no idea about investing. Why do you care about how many shares it is traded? Take a look at PARL's 3 year chart, and compare the pre-move volume and after? Also take a look at PAE and compare the level before 50c and after 100c.

If not my trading profit is getting close and more to investing profit, I won't come here to teach you how to make money.

To the PO have you considered a multidesktop OS, like linux? or a laptop with a larger screen?

Please trust me on this. You amuse me, nothing more. You remind me of a small boy trying to play a big man's game. If you have to ask me why I care how many shares are traded then there is not much hope for you.

multidesktop still need me to swith and cover wider information. not good for me. i am at max limitation now. no more flashing screens.

laptop with bigger screen, not an option. there is only one laptop called IBM T. everything else is a junk. Too bad once Chinese controls making of T, the quality is so bad that I won't buy T60. I like the T40 T41 T42 the best. T43 is ok.

i am getting more trades now. Today I had 32 trades covering 4 stocks, better than yesterday's 20 trades on 2 stocks. I really hope to find a replacement for this method. this work is like hell. the money earned on day trading is SIMPLE, not EASY. too much wear on health, eyes, back, hands, sleep. where I am at now has 12 hour difference with NY, so I trade from 8pm to 2am, and missed the last 2 hours trading - too tired, got to get some sleep. i still need to find rent office, set up servers, interview people, sell assets, borrow money, buy books, lunch with partners... oh man, i need a break!

then show us your today's trades to this week's trades or this year's P/L to see how you have done.
