anybody else notice this thread is getting a little quiet... i get more action in my pm about openings then here... anybody home...
Yes, it's been quiet out there. February had a great two week period for me, but otherwise, pretty flat. I think I'm up about $10k net ytd with openings. Below my goal pace, but still worth getting out of bed for.
6 fills / 9200 shares 4 short / 2 long...+198.00 - .8 / + .7 % manually traded out..otherwise it would have been quite icky...
system says that if left on as a group the opening trade would have shown a minimum loss of (1140.00) at 9:30 am cst... all other time frames were worse... i covered as trades started to reverse...if i waited for stops i would have gotten whacked... here's a good one though...nsc opens @ 50.44 i short it...next trade 50.20...by the time my 50.27 bid gets in stock is already trading 50.40...finally covered for a small loss (15.00)
