  2. I'm not one to try and predict where the market is headed more than 20 or 30 mins out, but could this sort of price action signal a change in overall market trend?

  5. well yeah, at the open the game was up. tough cookie to get out longs tho, with hidden orders goin' off 1% below mkt. i froze when i was stuck with my shares and had to offer much lower.

  6. Hello David Liu,

    I'm pretty impressed for your performance and dollar profits. Can you tell a few things: 1. Your buying power now; 2. Dollar risk per position or your type of position management; 3. How long you have been trading; 4. Retail day trader or other type; 5. Annual returns vs your trading capital (not buying power); 6. Your trading style (breakout, momentum, intuitive, discretionary, systematic, scalping, minutes-to-hours, or whatever you want to define); and 7. Anything you would like to say or comment. If you feel some question are too personal or answering them will reveal your well-kept trading secrets, please just ignore them. Thanks a lot.

    Happy holidays,

    Hi Guys,

    With the year nearing a close, I am curious as to what your year to date totals so far for 2006 have been...

    Hi,
    Just wondering how you are able to trade so many shares of such a low priced stock that hardly moves and not get eaten up by the commissions. Could you tell me approximately how your commission structure works?
    Thanks

    Ticket charges. The only way to make money trading that style is to pay a low flat rate per trade and do huge size. How does a 100,000 share order for $1 sound to ya?

  10. pay per ticket fees, plus pass throughs. Only way to go if you go big.
