Good to hear. October is coming up fast and that means it's about time to close this journal. But what if Spydertrader doesn't want to start...
I'll grant you that. I reacted to the fact that the trade appeared much smoother and safer than his other trades, but you're right, discipline in...
Tell me about it. A painful day in a painful week. I am still holding several stocks from Friday and Monday, and none of them are doing well....
Whatever it takes to follow your rules :) If you take a look back at this journal, almost every loss is after a blown or non-existant stop....
Stocks can do many things. You acted to protect your principal and took a 5% loss. You should feel good about following your rules, not kicking...
Good stuff. I will adjust my rules to lighten shares then exit if the trend does not continue soon after entry. Thanks for the insight.
Nice call! Clearly I was a bit out of my league in that trade - if I want to get in fast, I need to be able to get out fast, too. I got in a bit...
Did you buy any when it was trading down to 38.75? I got a bit greedy and tried to frontrun LMIA but got stopped out for just over 2%, and am...
I've been working on something that will do this using the Java API. How do you do this using hotkeys?
I don't think that making $3k/day scalping or daytrading is easy, nor do I think making 75% on a $1mil portfolio is easy, but I think these are...
Let's give the day trader & position trader $1,000,000. How much would the day trader make? Using the P&L thread as a guide, let's say he makes...
Wow, a lot of huge bulk trades off the opening today. A 120k share trade on ISE single-handedly pushed it over LBDU. TFSM also had a 120k share...
Yup, I was in there with you. My account size has grown dramatically so that I'm no longer trading with play money. It's playing games with my...
Queue Colbert's "I Called It" Dance :D
Just sold my CBEY at 26.40 for a 9.8% profit. Definitely wish I had gotten more size when I had the chance, but still a nice profit.
I thought so many monitors was to compensate for small dicks, not small boobs. What do I have to buy if I want people to think I'm hung like a...
I ended up picking up a really small position (1/6th my standard size) earlier in the day after volume continued. When my position came close to...
Careful with CBEY. When it signaled, more than half of its volume was in a single 40,000 share trade at 9:51. I passed on the trade, but it's up...
What motivated you to drop down this far? Do you have any criteria (e.g.: avg daily volume) which helps you decide what time frame is most...
Spydertrader, Did you take any action on it? I didn't get into it on the 7th and figured that horse has left the stable. Just looking at...
