Objectively a pretty nice number for me, but I feel like I just had a bad down day.
In the morning I had 2k shares in a stock with an ARCA buyer who held and moved the bid up for a straight point and a half. Should have been an easy, easy, easy hold for at least $1500 Instead, I bailed half almost right away and only made $700 on the whole trade.
Then at the the end of the day I was trying to push a thin stock down to get a nice closing print and market maker KBWI was holding on the bid, and coming up. Kinda neat in that it was the first time I could clearly tell it was me vs. some other guy in the market one on one. Too bad in a battle of me vs. a market maker, the market maker wins. Lost $500 on that trade. Blech.
Oh well, at least I have an idea on how to deal with him next time in that stock.
