  1. Still half size, but 6 fills for about $700.

    And, talk about a "coulda" geez, oh well.

    1 Fill on 100 shares for a small winner. Left a lot on the table. Still getting used to higher volatility.

  6. 1 long scratch.

    Still getting a lot of news cancels. Earnings season is annoying. Companies should report twice a year.

    Sell orders only with 0.3 envolope. 3 fills, 1 solid winner but 2 big losers. 600 total shares, net -57.00

    I entered the wrong opening price on ABT, off by a $1 and took a big loser and then was trying to revenge trade on my last position to make up for it. Of course ended up taking 2 big losers.
