thanks...but no. This is my first profitable year...i may just be getting lucky..I am up about 47% so far this year, which i am happy about becuse i have a full time job as a bond broker, so i cant sit in front of the screen all day... If i can keep it up for about 3 years (or make a living at it)...then "decent trader" may begin to apply. but i appreciate the compliment! Suerte.
Guys, let's please stick to trading blotters. If you'd like to commiserate with Szeven (or anyone else) please send them a PM. Otherwise this thread quickly spins out of control with all the helpful advice. Thanks.
Might sound stupid.. but what exactly are trading blotters?? I'm trading with interactive brokers what do I need to do to post my P/L? thanks
Hit your printscreen key on your keyboard. Open up MS Paint. Hit the paste key, resize, block out any info you don't want, save it as a .jpg or .png *if it can*, and then post. I use Snagit for my screenshots though.
i see now...you were being a smart ass...I dont call it a blotter... it is a "screen shot" for me...i didnt know either. you were saying i was full of B.S. ... now i remember why i pay more attention to my work then i do to these threads. geez.
Hey dac, just ignore that loser...everyone else does...we all apreciate you participating in this thread. Mad
I agree dac8555. And I would have removed Cpt Power's useless post except you gave such a considerate, thoughtful response to it. The best way to fight the few losers who pop into this thread from time to time is to simply ignore what they say. Do not respond to them and when I logon I will get rid of their junk. Thanks.
Crazy stickies all over the place today, finally got sorted out at about 12.00 ish. Lucky to come out of this one alive. Calling it a day now before I push my luck!! Good weekend guys!!!!
-78.02 1200shares got shaken out of some shorts. i picked the bottom of 3 of them. geez. 1 of the shorts went up so fast on tinny little vol, i cannot believe what i was seeing. it was coming down on 100-200k, and it retrace a bit more on around 25k vol with a much steeper angle. i did follow my rules, but there was only 1 winner out of 6.
