Not worth posting a blotter, but I was down -$50 today on just one trade. I set my stop fairly tight, and I was stopped out soon after I bought the shares.
No trades Monday or Tuesday. It's great to be back. NOT! -605.52 I'd like to blame esignal for freezing up repeatedly, but we all know I would have lost money anyway.
still in 'scared' mode.....sprayed 100 shares of oils at FOMC and 200 shares eod. (It was a disaster doing this with 1k shares) net +4800 ish and happy
Caught a piece of the Aetna bounce, then a little more after the swoon from the fed announcement, THANK GOODNESS I wasnt long going into the close. All the people with moc orders got crushed. + 3k
Faded the gap right off of the open, gave it back, then faded it again at 10:30 quit early, way ahead of fed. Have never had the balls to trade that. Or is that smart? Still not sure because you see these huge moves and you think you're missing something...... +500 after commissions.
I believe this question is appropriate for a P&L thread: Does anyone know where to find the table that everyone's always leaving money on? (Please answer with today or tomorrow's P&L post so we don't clutter up this thread.)
Well, usually the money left on the table are considered the tips, so by your arrival they will be gone anyway P.S. To stay on topic the PL i printscreened the last time i was about to close at a profit today
