oes is just like nyfix or merril dot. they're internally matching orders when possible for order flow payment and you hardly ever get price improvment. i've used both and you can't beat a direct route with no middle man to the floor. mk i remember you saying you paid what .0005 a share to use that. what percent of your trades are going threw oes?
stopped a bit at lunch to go for a swim, came back and made another 2k for the day. But I am done for the day, everyone have a good weekend.
easy, dude.. easy. you know when you nonchalantly say you go out for your leisurely intraday swims in your pool, it rubs people the wrong way.. especially after banking $5k. i know you don't mean it, but it's kinda like how the rival teams and fans used to feel watching Neon Deion highstep 90 yards to the endzone after a pick. lol. i think it's great, tho. hopefully one day i'll be able to enjoy midday swims after a couple hours work too. congrats on the day!
Lol. good analogy. I find this thread encouraging b/c it shows that there is light at the end of the tunnel (for some at least.) And it shows that it can be done.
All discretionary trades today in the reits. RMP index was chopping wildly this morning, got almost every top and bottom in the a.m.. I lost almost 2k after it settled down - I was just churning shares. MTM is about $100 less than realized, across all accounts. Nice day. Did about 425,000 shares
What a slow day today. Thanks for one trade in EBAY and one good one in SMTX managed to make some good cash. I think the 3 hour lunch today was a good choice. MM
