  3. Don, how much buying power are you using to make these gains? Does it change every day?

  4. Normal day today, +875 on 7 fills. I have been working with a few traders lately, "teaching them the ropes", all three are doing well. It's a skill that can be learned, so for all those struggling out there, keep working on refining both your strategy and your trading skill.

    Good trading to all!

  8. 6 fills / 800 shares each

    3 long / 3 short -170.00

    -.75 / +.75 %

    nyse filled my stop 46 cents worse than stop trigger...so much for fair and orderly....

    systems says p&l would have been +1328.00 if i has waited till 9:00 am to exit...

    i should have slept in...

    dow arb was also falsely advertised.. opened up 15 points higher than indicated then promptly reversed...

    like i said... i should have stayed in bed...tgif

  9. 46 cents on a stop trigger? We never use stops anyway, but that does sound a bit extreme.....maybe send me a PM with some detail (good info for my trainees)...thanks,
