Quote from Don Bright:

Pretty good opg this morning..... DD, HPQ and GE. + 40 cents.

But, then I decided to keep trading DD, and gave some back... oh well, green for the day....

Have a great Holiday everyone!

How was DD good or GE? short at 72 on DD. The stock never droped bellow 72 to get out even? Let alone mkae 40 cents?

I think Don report fills as a sum of all trades, not an average as I do.

I have been cautious on the long side lately. Got bad days last week during this "rally". When it goes down it seems that the stocks aren't priced well on the downside with the pre market.
Is it me or the opens are a little more shaky in the last 2 weeks. The ES is jiggy in the first minutes.

No fills.
Cancelled 2/3, played very wide, especialy on the long side.
