Wow, that was clutch chiguy. I am very happy for you. What an emotional swing.
Today could have been decent if I had the sense to cancel Tyco, which I had an inkling to do as I waited for it to open. He took me down $3180 before working back, but still cost me $1050.
All in all, 3 longs, 2 wins and a Tyco, -339 on 5000 shares.
Yesterday and today were the first two OPG fills I've gotten on Tyco since it spun off the other two companies. I think he's going into the penalty box for the time being.

Well, this just in from my Arcadia office.
(I think a new record).
$139,000 this morning, over $105,000 from the opening, and the balance from closing some pairs. One guy...not bad...

Entered buy orders only with .2 envelope...
Got 1 fill long GE for a nice quick win & then decided to cancel my remaining open orders: DOW PFE T WMT
Of those 4 "woulda" gotten fills on DOW & T for a loss & a win (most likely)
Looks like a lot of stocks worked so hope everyone had a good day...good weekend to all

We talked about DD and DOW on our morning call, I took them out (luckily).....
I was small again today, +565 on a couple of fills. No sell shorts (why bother, LOL).
No new records this morning, but no significant losses either.
No system problems today, a bit slow yesterday, but today the auto-retrace orders went in within 2 seconds.

Man, I had a tough week in the OPGs. It was a lot worse than it should have been, as I let market conditions take me out of my standard fundamental strategy. Even so, poor performing fills here and there just eliminated the few I got that were nicely profitable, so I'd have been a loser either way. Kind of the luck of the draw, but still stinks.
Today I cut size and got 5 long fills, 3 wins, 2 losers, -947 on 5100 shares.
Absolutely mangled GE; took a nice partial profit, then let it drift down while watching other fills. It came back to my entry and I sat there, expecting the market to have a nice pop and take it up, but that didn't happen, so I let it drift again. Just plain dumb, and something I never do. Gotta get back to following the rules.
Have a good weekend all.
