How much extra trouble would it be to just put the symbol and the executed entry price next to the "added one today" line? not the whole list, just the one symbol and the price.! Surely you could do this randomtrader. Please? Michael B.
Random's journals are for his ego, not to discuss trades with others. By not posting any verifiable details he can omit any of the bad results and keep unaware ETers asking questions. He wants you to ask about his methods and his picks so he can refuse. In his own words, he started his first thread "to show that daytrading doesn't work." You can bet he has similiarly deranged reasons for his other journals.
If you do not trust my results, you don't have to read it. There are reasons that I don't post all the details. By the way, I post real-time trades in "Forex Forex". I am sure you can best spend all your time verifying all my trades there.
I do not want this thread to turn into a penny stock discussion place. That is the reason I don't list the stocks. However, I did give the simple criteria that I use to search for candidates some pages back. If you really have interest, go look for it.
I know the criteria....i just thought since you were doing it.......I am well a well-meaning and helpful kind of person. By listing two more pieces of info, surely would not change this thread....I think everybody understands your intentions. Thank you for your time. And I would love to follow along and buy the stocks you are choosing....but I guess I can fire up a stock charting program....(I trade futures) Michael B.
One more piece of information: after I come up with a list of, say for example, 40 stocks, I will put GTC buy orders for all of them. The buy price is somewhat related to the 52-week low of the stock. Then these orders will get filled in a random fashion on random days. Do you really care for the name of these stocks? I don't. In fact, you may be able to reconstrcuct my list if you really want to. Too much time wasted on a $1200 experiment already!
