Was having a good day until I got sideswiped in RCH too big a position, I was trading small lots all day, then I got larger and had a 3000 gain in RCH on no shares to a loss on it! Serious whip. 3540 minus 1100 commish in main and -202 Title account.
+37.60 Net 1200 Shares I missed some good things and ended up in some slop instead. Then I found something decent and made a small profit for the day. I have to be somewhere, again, so I'm calling it a day.
Anekdoten: I see the other day you did 145 trades and made 45K. That is about $310 a trade or 6 e-mini points. If you were right 80% of the time and lost 2 points average on the losers your winners would have to have been 116 trades averaging about 7.5 points per win. (rounding off in my head) I can't see how there is enough movement in the market to do 116 trades with an average win of 7.5 points?
In another thread I believe you said you did 5 to 10 lots. I was thinking that was the case. Marty Swartz is a pimple on an elephants ass compared to this performance. Pretty impressive.
And mind you he does this from his laptop in the bathroom of his Best Western room. He only graduated from puretick 3 months ago too. Very impressive indeed.
Quite the range today, only did scalping as there wasn't really a clear direction. +562.50 -85 comm (17 RT) +477.50 net
