Only a few easy steps.

1. Alt+Print Screen to capture your blotter / account window
2. open Paint
3. paste
4. select the rectangle area tool
5. use the rectangle tool to select the area displaying your acct #
6. Ctrl+X
7. voila - personal info is now gone

But, whatever. I'm sure you have your reasons.
 
Done for the day. Nice ending to the week.


OVTI - 2.00
PETC + 972.63

Wareco, I can capture the screen, bit I can't upload it to post.
When I think I do, it doesn't show. PM me your email and I'll send it to you... maybe you can post it. Is there an attachment button I'm missing?

I could not trade today but here is today's results based on what happened:

BIDU +1.25 [500 shares]
RIMM +.20 [1000 shares]
REDF -.15 [1000 shares]

profit after commissions: $603
Time in Market: 11 minutes and 15 seconds

P.S. to above post: I tried to post a screenshot of my account but unfortunately I could not hide my account number in anyway and thats why I have not done it.
I Don't feel that I should sacrifice my privacy when plenty of people confirmed my gain/loss posts already.

outstanding,

you're balancing both size (500 shares and 1000 share positions) with the risk inherent in these positions....

good results, it could have easily gone the other way though
 
Hi

Yes limitdown, It could go the other way too just as in any trade and in any market. But we buy mostly on strength and not in weakness. So we have a much better chance of going the way we want it to go. If it loses, it loses, thats all. Trading is a game of chance with controlled risk and we all must accept it once we step into the realm of trading.
