Fun one today...proof of openings being "Idiot Proof".... Sold TWX at 17.95....it looked "strong" ---- Tried to pay 18.00 for half.....bought half at 17.91 with 9 cents price improvement. Saw 17.89 bid, put in 17.91 bid... It looked strong again, so I tried to pay 17.95... Bought both at 17.89 (now long). Tried to "scratch" the extra buy, sell at 17.89... Sold at 17.91 with price improvement. Tried as hard as I could to lose money, but made $120 anyway. LOL Don
1 fill 1 long -34.00 sshhhh... it's very quiet............... elmer fudds morning commentary..........
that way by far the most sketchy opening for me ever. (ok, so this is my 8th day doing it.) 2 Long Fills both winners. CCE and COH 5 Short fills: 2 Winners (AMP, MMC) 3 Losers: (STZ. MCD, TSG) $410 net on 600 shares a piece. AMP was crazy, thin as a wire.... went against me a bit. held it then the big tank came. MCD way also crazy, went way against me... held it only lost a little... yeesh! So the big winners were: AMP 37 cents avg, COH 27 cents avg, MMC, 12 cents avg. Not sure whether I should pul AMP from my list permently... It should be a little thicker for it's avg volume... have a great day everyone. matt
Don (and everyone else) Do you pull stocks out of your list when the behave erratically or unexpectedly? matt
