    Thanks for the update on your FU Spyder.

    Here's my OPXT chart from today. Looks like we might have experienced a R2R, will put it on my watchlist for the next couple of days.

  3. Thanks for the FU postings. It was great to be able to compare mine since I've only been trading this for less than a month. it seems like the last 2 weeks, all signals have dried up. But the market overall has been marching up.

    After my last 3 losing trades, I'm a lot more patient now and only enter when all the planets are aligned.

    I think we all can cancel LEND from the FU, it's been bought by Lone Star Extends Tender, and it's not been traded for the past week or so , thus daily Vol = 0

    Thanks for the FU and DU lists Spyder

  6. I'm kicking myself savagely for letting myself get involved in TASR despite it not being on my dry-up list. Clear, unambiguous departure from the rules! I hope the lesson sticks this time...

  7. You're not alone.

    I battle with this constantly.

  8. The only stock I've been trading out of the FU universe but not according to the rules is TBSI and have had some success with it but mostly just dumb luck since it's such a strong, volatile stock.

    I bot VSR and BTJ today but 1/2 my normal amount as they are AMEX stocks.

  9. I remember reading something about AMEX stocks - why do you avoid them/reduce risk? I got stopped out of BTJ, which was annoying. Still in VSR for a small gain.

    The problem is the execution of your trade, it's not rare to wait for a fill for looong minutes. Basically the specialist takes his/her time to screw the market participants.

    That's the main reason some people avoid AMEX stocks
