Why not just do the 200 share lots all day? Extrapolating ... if you were up $150 in the morning ... continued to trade 200 in the PM another $150...
How could he have taken the price up if he's selling as much as you stated (150K/day when avg. volume is 200K)? That's 75% of normal daily volume....
Might you be bored at times? That is, if you're not in the market and it's moving (up or down) do you feel you're missing out on the action and...
For me, 0.35
(1) When I'm up big for the day I quit and go enjoy the day. You used the word "gamble" and I'd bet the trades that got you up for the day were...
I don't agree with you on #1 unless I'm misunderstanding what you mean. Why is it not helpful (in your opinion) if one uses a different method...

I was in software development for a number of years but always had a strong interest in trading. I began trading part time (mainly swing trades)...
I don't think taking just a couple data points would be representative statistically. The October 1987 crash was a statistical anomaly IMO. More...
Or ... trade a bit larger when going for those smaller profits. And do it over and over.
Agree 100%. Got stopped out of some shorts last week. At times you have to be a bit of a contrarian, especially when the market seems to be...
