Going short QQQ

Discussion in 'Trading' started by heilbronner, Mar 17, 2004.


  1. So in all there is a gain of 36 cents(22+14). The two trades were made in a very short time, and IMHO this is almost a full standard intraday trading range in QQQs. So the guys laughing about .36 cents meanwhile being in the red numbers are just a joke to me.

  3. heilbronner, these aren't "market calls". it is called "scalping" and i know plenty that do just this every day.

    why are you making a big deal out of it?

  4. I know some of the best scalpers in the Dax. They are doing their trades within some seconds. This is real scalping, Buick.

    Apart, no big deal about my trades. I was just giving accurate entry and exit in RT, that's all.

    Down $115,000? Am I worried about -2.5%? Hell no.
    Guess what. After today I'm up 1%. Big deal. Do I boast and brag about being up $45,000 on my trade? No.

    With you, you focus on pennies. $0.18 out of $35 QQQ is less 0.50%.

    One half of a percent.

    Ridiculous.

  6. You can't know how much I'm up at the moment. I was up when you were down. But I'm even more up now.
