I start everyone out with stocks in the range of $15-$45 for various reasons....and we seem to keep above the 75% success rate (win/loss)...with net positives. Don
I guess that would have eliminated FCX from the bunch this morning... I elminated everything above 90$ for today, I might consider lowering that #... I've been filled on VC a couple times this past week I've never done better than scratch on it. Perhaps I'll add in a low limit as well... thanks for the tips Don. mnx
hey guys, I was just checking the NYOB on a bunch of stocks and I saw someone who had bids on lots of stocks for 3000 shares already... It's about 9:15 now. I'm guessing whoever this is has a way of dynamically updating bids and offers as the futures price changes... that's cool stuff. They seem to be using 0.7% in their calculations... mnx
8 fills. 3 long 5 short. $49 net on 100 shares each. Winners: LIZ(34 cents), EK(16 cents), SWY(9 cents), WMB(2 cents) Losers: EP (2cents) , LUV (5 cents) Even: GPS, MAT I only put out orders on stocks between 8$ and 50$ today... Out of everything but LUV by 9:36. LUV wouldn't go down because no one who was long the stock would sell it, stupid uptick rule... have a great day everyone... mnx
8 fills / 1000 shares each 2 short / 6 long -411.00 - .7 / + .8 % traded oils today and got whacked... initial profit +510.00 turns to loser in record time... oils...- 697.00....ouch happy monday...learned something though....
1 short, didn't want to go down with the market. +80 net. Can the Steelers end the Colts' unbeaten streak tonight? Let's hope so.
wow opening orders couldve turned out really bad today...lucky for me they only turned out slightly bad. 2 fills both losers -145 Lost 90 in KO and $55 in ACI I was short ACI with 1000 shares @ 74.17 Tried to collect a $260 profit.
