  1. the greatest day in 2008, bought the market at the biggest drop in premarket, then sold it at FED rate cut news rally, then bought it agian at the morning low, sold it at morning high.

    fun, did not do any short today

  3. Very nice

    Even though you've booked the large profit - keep your discipline thru the rest of the year - don't get reckless

    Well done!

    My account is up $3,700. A pretty good day for me.

    One of the accounts I trade is up $13,400.

    I should add that my work day involved taking a walk, browsing through the Wall Street Journal (old news), reading elitetrader, eating some lunch, and playing Diablo II..... I only trade at the end of the week.
