  2. Good morning!

    Alright guys. Last night I was thinking and I came to the conclusion that this just isn't my week. So, until then, I'll be trading less aggressively. Not that I was trading aggressively before, but I can definetly tone it down.

    Good Trading!

  3. WOW!!!!!!!!! WHAT AN AMAZING DAY!!! Right from the get go I was in the zone. By 9:43 am I was up $100. I made a couple of trades after that and I just realized that I was HOT! I made 12 cents off of a short in Qwest today with a 1000 shares. I got that trade in because of my fellow traders. They called out, "Short Q!! Short Q!!" It was totally sweet! AND I totally blew away my best gross and net today.

    There is so much more opportunity now that I'll be able to trade higher beta stocks. NT, LU, and CPN are my bread and butter, so I'll always scalp those stocks. Yesterday I was told that I can start watching, GLW, GTW, and EMC. Chart reading is a big thing here so I'm really just identifying support, resistance, entry points, and stops. By next week I'll be going into these stocks whenever an opportunity occurs.

    It's a good thing I had a day like today. This week has been rough and I'm grateful that I was able to do well today. Just to think, back in October, I had no idea what I was doing.....

    I made $705.50 and spent about $120 making it! I'm not including any credits that I got from BRUT or INET, so I probably spent less making it.

    I had 29 buy executions, 23 sell executions, and 170,300 shares traded.

    Tomorrow will be a better day!!!

    Too cool. I'm going to join up with a shop like yours if I can autotrade my way out of the daytime job. I enjoy watching the trades go off and watching the time and sales, much of the time I can tell when the tide is turning. I want to get some training and just do that all day for awhile, too cool for sure.

    Great Job!

    You should feel very confident in yourself. This is an extremely difficult business, and yet you are making money already.

    Most people lose all their money or it takes them years to get to the point you are at.

    Just remember: Don't get to high, and Don't get to low! The most successful traders stay even tempered!
