Took break from trading, but I know you cannot give up

  1. Ha if bored, what did you think of my MCOA chart? Looks ripe for breakout but risky because of shares outstanding/otc. And yeah learned my lesson with DRYS don't want to be burned again. SINO was same category and popped last week, I got in and out before letting myself get screwed again. Guess just trying to come up with some filters to prevent me from getting caught in one of these again.

  3. No, wish I could get my money back from that halt.. going to take a while to rebuild my portfolio and get a nice equity curve. Hopefully just a momentary blip. I used to love shorting UVXY but its been trending down so long, cant imagine vix not popping at some point soon. Brexit really hurt one of my shorts in it but besides that was a great trade.

    If you show any proof whatsoever of ever being up 3 mil in a trade I'll take this thread serious.

    I actually pay attention to my like to post ratio. I maintain around 33%, if I drop into the lower 32% level it means I'm trolling too much, if I get above 34% it means I'm being boring. It's a good filter.

    I did the math and currently at 362/1098 your ratio is 33%... so I'll like this post ;)

  7. R Morse is killing everyone in this thread at 37.5%. Poor Van Zandt is lingering in the low 20's.
