well took my panties off today and traded 20k as a default on intc for most of the day...a little stressful......and if i had traded 4k i would have doubled my money just cause i havent grown the balls yet to be holdin 20k on intc for any amount of time and i could have taken some nice winners if i could have just held them for a bit longer.... +1300 damn i hate sunw!
Just a quiet solid day. Traded the intraday much better. Stuck to my convictions and got paid for them.
Started puking out my "statistically deviant" short, on one of my risk arbs. First one I've ever had to puke out, this was a statistical stop loss. Anyway, it's killed my account for a week+. +3600mtm in main account, -4100 short accounts, net -500. Goin' nowhere faaaaaaaaast. OK volume, 260k sh.
traded on 3 hours of sleep, and could not get anything except a lack of focus. -3,100 accross the accounts. time for an afternoon sleep. patrick
One of those days where nothing worked. Out of 7 strategies in play today, 5 were red and the two winners didn't amount to a lot. Total -$2700 on 194,000 shares
guess im gonna have to add to thew pain, -2000 stopped out early in the morning, shouldnt have even been trading I didnt know WTF was going on in Ford, people were tossing around hundred thousand share lots like it was nothing and the stock went nowhere, nothing showing on the levels so it was pretty tough to read, got stubborn on a short and lost 1250$
