    You'll note the president of the firm put the company's website in his post. Several dozen people in the last couple of days have asked for information of the firm much less me. Speaking for me, I know I ask important questions directly to people rather than put them in a public forum.

    In the interim, one kind piece of advice if you don't mind: five minutes before the bell, trade rather than post on an anonymous messageboard. I for one tend to earn much of my living just after the open and just before the close. Do not be afraid to trade around the open and close. I think (and hope) that you'll find your trading performance enhanced by trading at 3:55PM rather than posting on Elite Trader or any other forum.

    Good luck.

    Erik

    No. I am. Anything I post here is in my name. I don't believe in anonymity or hiding behind usernames.

     
  7. Imagine how much more money you could earn if you traded during the rest of the session. :)

    I am at my desk from 6AM-7PM most days. I trade the entire session, but find when next to nothing is going on in the middle of the day, I tend to lose money if I try to create something out of nothing. Just over 63% of my average day was earned by 9:45AM ET when I tallied my results for last year. So, that leaves the other 37% over the course of the day. But the preperation I do early in the morning tends to thankfully work when the market is at its busiest.

     
  10. You've found your point of "diminishing return". The tricky part now is to escalate your position size.
