out of MTG @ 16.44 +.06
moved my limit price down and down and did not want to carry overnight. price poped up to two cents above my limit to allow my out and then move back down quickly (as done in the last three 10 min bars) about 10 cents.
Simply no real price action above my entry price. Very nicely set up for a long tomorrow if continues to move down.

Another good day. Only long trades today.
I really hate how IB realized profit is SOOOO wrong on the board. Once again due to a overnight carry over it appears I made more than I did.
As I write this I bought 1 unit of BX in after market at 17.64 (looks like its the one LOW print of the day - so far)
+457 for the day
+ 991 for the week
+ 1461 for the month/yr

signed up for the $10 ARCA market data today so that i could avoid the warnings on IB about lack of market data when trying to put in orders for listed stocks in ARCA. I expect to save a lot of money in commissions by using ARCA and getting the rebate back. IB customer service still doesn't appear to be as well trained as they should be. upon asking them about ARCA and the rebates, the customer service rep had no idea what I was talking about. He said there was no ECN rebates with equities.
here are my trades today. all are on the long side today. I did get a short signal or two (mostly at the end of the day but LOTS of long signals)

Last trade of the day was some options. This stock gave me two different long signals. one was a swingg trade long and the other was a day trade long. This combo is very strong and I perhaps should not have been so conservative with it. I was trying to buy at a lower price when the stock started moving higher and never looked back. I did sell 2 15 Jan put options and so I was able to get a very small piece of the move.
S 2 ABH Jan 15 puts @ 1.10
covered at the END of the day at .60
+ 97 for the trade.
My options cover was two seconds before market close. I had a limit price of .50 hoping it would get hit. I then moved the price to the ask of .60 to close out. With such a strong short term profit that could be locked in I didn't see the value of holding overnight for a potential gain of another 10-15 cents.
ended the day flat
Three very solid days of using the new oversold indicator in a row. looking forward to the new dual xeon machine that should be here tomorrow.

Pretty much one of the ugliest trades I have done in a long time. This was done after 2pm with the 6b+ signal. While profitable I need to adjust the signal for late day trading(or just ignore that signal after 2pm)
+118 for the trade.
Still long ARW and about even for that trade. expect to see some good things tomorrow with it.
