OK, to be fair CL was basically flinging money by the handfuls at anyone who wanted to be the trend's friend.
And despite the POT being really weak yesterday, I got very high, so I decided to smoke it again today. I guess I built up some tolerance because I didn't get quite as high, but still not bad to round out a new record finish
+$4072
well done!
i ended up $-45 today, got pissed off for missing the trend. And made 2 trades in the range.
here is my entries. It seemed that i could take small profit with the entry, but it ended up with loss.
first short @ 1961.25, stop @ 1962
second long @ 1965 stop @ 1966
+33,000$ on ITMN afterhour trades, 20K blocks. This may bounce more tomorrow but who knows.

Someone pm'ed me a question about why my Gains/Losses screenshot only shows 100 or 200 shares, it is because it is cropped, and would otherwise be about 2 pages long.
I attached the actual trade sizes from one of my 20K blocks I traded with. I had broken it up into 2 orders of 10K each, which were charged only as 2 separate commissions, but were more expensive due to AH costs...

Good work!
+300/.3%. For those with recent 5 and 6 figure gains, do you also have similar size losses at times? While I look forward to continuing to scale up my trading account as I have over the past year, I also look forward to reducing my risk (at least as a % of my account) by diverting some profits into lower risk strategies.
Sure... I just try to have the profits outweigh the losses.
Up 450,000$ on the year, between my Bofa and ETrade accounts.

Thanks for responding. That's all any of us are trying to do ... and wow! I think I would have a hard time handling 5 figure swings on a daily basis, but then my account is not big enough that I have to worry about that just yet. I'm still getting used to 4 figure swings. At least I'm headed in the right direction and that's what matters.
