OK, well 6 straight winning days...but (once again)...I can't believe I got out too darn soon on BBY...2 days in a row. It opened at 46.93, up 82 cents...I'm short 3,000 shares....I cover from 46.87 down to 46.81...within 10 minutes it's down another 40 cents...and is now down for the day.....same thing happened yesterday....(what a "weenie" LOL)... Anyway, good day ...PFE and HAL as well. +$650. Don
yesterday 1 short -45.00 4 fills / 6500 shares / net long 3500 3 long / 1 short / +116.00 forgot to block nsm on adi news...-525.00...ouch tgif
No openings yesterday or today, spent time with bootcampers (final days)..... BTW, Chiguy and the rest of you....I'm hoping to have you join Rob Friesen (PairCo president) and I on Aug 22 for our workshop (see "hookup")...and also, perhaps from 3-5 we can get together for a snack and a drink near the exchange... Send me a PM on either or both.... Don
8 fills / 11800 shares / net short 8200 6 short / 2 long / -109.00 partial long fill in (S) 300 shares - .15 / + 1.35% bounced between red and green all through the trade... if held loser....worked out bit by bit for small loss...
1 fill / 1500 shares 1 short / - 1084.00 -.1 / + 2.0% should have scratched the trade... i saw an offer on arca and in my haste did not notice that the whole number was a buck higher...i paid 65.91 instead of 64.91... all you arca traders....your welcome.... i shouldn't complain as they gave me a break and only filled 1100 at 65.91 and sold me 200 at 65.25 and 100 at 65.23...i was able to cancel my last 100 as my bid sat waiting to be hit...all the while the stock was offered at 65.00 on nyse... and you thought only nyse were crooks... i have asked for a courtesy adjustment as it was clearly an error...whatever happens it was my fault...can't hurt to ask though...
This has been going on for years...they program their computers to enter a dollar away with same decimal numbers. I think it is despicable....but since there is "no free lunch" - we have to be careful with the ECN's. Sorry you got stuck...bummer... Don
