  1. It's to much of a hassle...it's even a hassle with the simbroker.

    C'mon, you can take one little ole day off, and show us what you
    got...:D

  2. Okay. Riddle me this. I take one day off and there is 10 times as many people who come by my house to visit. I don't get it.

    :D :D :p :p

    Breakout - You did a great job keeping the 'ol place up. I can not believe you posted both sides of 15 trades. You are making me look real bad. Thanks I appreciate it. Checks in the mail.

    Your 133 tick system is definitely a little differnt than mine. (Where did the 133 thing come from anyway). My system only averages 5 trades per day and I went back and took a look at today and I would have most likely taken 6 positions. I posted them in the following 2 charts. (not as detailed as BO, he is the master).

    I had a great birthday, but I am really sorry I was not able to trade today. There were several great set-ups and I would have made some money. I know it's always easier to say that looking back, but several of the signals were confirmed across multiple time frames. Even my rookie skills at trade mgmt should have come out pretty good today.

    BO - Looking at your trades there were not many matching entries that I would have taken.

    Thanks again everybody. What is it? Do you guys hide when I am in charge.
    :p :p

  3. There was another trade later in the day, but I would have probably would have not been in it and it did not fit on the chart anyway.

  4. Now boys, simmer down. You remember the little guy on the stool with the dunce hat on sitting in the corner???

    Consider this a verbal warning young men.:cool:

    I must admit though, you don't see a lot of folks calling trades here on ET. BO and Electric are two of the few that have been bold enough here. Shows integrity, shows character, shows leadership. :)

  6. Michael - Went back and looked at this one. Although, stoch's and price were right, my MACD was not. Also, I would not have entered this until 12:33 based on my filter.

    I think I would have also taken this trade and been stopped out on the little move down before the run up.

  7. You guys were right on. This was a text book sell signal. Good call.
