This may have been addressed a while back, but I couldn't find anything about it in the brief search that I did. For about the past 3-4 weeks,...
It can be tricky. I don't trade anything that regularly carries a spread of .08-.10 or more in my IB account. I would also suggest trading in a...
Try def's suggestion as it is best. I would also add a few things. The specialist could be backing away. I've had a number of orders act...
I've had a similar problem. I also use Qcharts and IB TWS...running it on the web, not locally. I submitted several orders today that stayed...
Good enough for me. I need to watch it more...still developing the gut on trades like this. Thanks Praetorian
get out flat? I'm looking to go positive. I am likely playing this wrong...I am still reading through the GNP thread. I got in this AM as well...
I also did some checking against UPC 11380 and didn't find any stocks on the IB list. I've seen stocks trading under $1 on the short list.
Thanks def... We all appreciate it. If OCA doesn't pan out, let me know and I could provide other specific examples as necessary. My...
Has anyone had the problem (at IB) of a stock being on the short list but unavailable? This has happened to me several times. I have checked...
roger2, I'm still trailing stops on both MOVI and INTU. INTU at 37.50 today with a limit sell at 35.01 and MOVI at 27.50 with a limit sell at...
The jury may still be out on stops. I have tested 3 since the fixes were allegedly made last Friday and they have been triggered properly....
FWIW, CCK looks to be shaping up for a reversal. There is a bid at 3.55 for 40K and now 10K at 3.60. I just got filled in front of him...with...
Roger, MOVI is in the low 24's and INTU is getting near 36. I have a trailing stop at 38 to cover INTU and a sell order at 35.01. I see no...
Bigwave, The primary reason that I'm shorting INTU and others is that the rallies are not sustained or following through. The stocks run for a...
We'll see. My timing on MOVI was bad but I had enough $$$ to avg up and hang on. That continues to sell off nicely today. INTU's volume...
It looked strong at the open. I finally got short at 39 with a 40.01 stop. I'll look for 35 or lower to cover, 1:4 for this one. I wouldn't...
roger2, I'm looking to get short on INTU this morning...with a stop around 39.10. Unless we get a good sustained rally, I'm thinking this...
I have had success with this type of trading. Often, on NYSE issues - trading under 500K a day - I'll see a buyer/seller post 20,000 to 60,000...
Fahnestock has a history of hyping stock then moving them a good deal. I wouldn't want to bet against them but I'd first have to check to see if...
MOVI busted thru over the last few days. I had averaged up to 31 on my short position and I'm looking for low 20's to cover, although I'll be...
