2 long / 1 short / +244.00

very quiet....

 

5 longs 2 wins, 2 scratch, 1 loss VZ bad boy at the open.

Hey gehko - Given your large number of fills last few days, I'm curious - how many stocks do you have on your list?

 

I havent done openings orders in a few years. My question is mainly regarding lower volume stocks (still avg 1M a day traded.)

I noticed looking at the time and sales on various listed and Nasdaq stocks, the opening print for the day (according to tradestation) occurs on different exchanges.

Is there a prefered routing for each listed and Nasdaq to get that print?

Common sense says NYSE, and NASDAQ exchanges, but I wasnt sure if the game had changed, and you arent always guaranteed a print that opens with ARCA for example, etc...

Any insight would be great on this. I am trying to find a way to get that Opening print on thinner issues, etc

 

3 fills, 2 longs & a short $100.

 

At the moment 172.
