Sometimes you see great opening plays on earnings days, but of course the day you miss news you get clipped instead of lucky. You had a great week last week; the market had to take you down a peg. I got shut out today; flattest open we've had in a while.
i'd rather be lucky than smart anyday.... but being brain dead tends to leave a mark.... oh well...as cub fans say...wait till tommorrow...:eek:
2 fills / 500 shares each 1 long / 1 short +30.00 bailed quick...blocked lots of earning stocks.. - 1.35 / + .65 pays for breakfast...
Finally had a chance to trade the opens on my own computer today. Up $600. Trading in front of class all week so far cost about $1100 (couldn't really "hold" positions, didn't want to show any bad beginner habits). Anyway, boot camp starts next week, and I'll be back at on more than a single screen laptop, LOL...should be back to normal. Up to 13 pairs, Tammy has 85 pairs going now, doing real well. All the best, Don
