Apparently entering live limit orders with a willingness to cancel based on changes in price is illegal. also man I'm really not. I'm not shit. I'm some punk ass kid who lives with his parents who has no formal education who has put all his eggs into one basket (daytrading/scalping). given all the screen time i've put in, i'd have made more money on an hourly basis (since I placed that first trade 12/05/06) working at mcdonalds. many people have replied to this thread who are far superior traders than me.
