dolphins,

thanks,
tihfa

 

Shrs: 15k
0313: -$1253

 

-$478 net

Shorted a gap up at the open and had $100 for 15 minutes or so then a symmetrical triangle started forming then it breached the top slope but i stubbornly held on. I thought of taking the $100 and going long early on!!!

 

I trade (pre-open) and between 3:00 and 5:30 am eastern time. I'm concentrating on CL for now

best one of week so far..will do week after data in. swings in vol as usual.

 

d08 - good trading. Couple questions
1. why do you say NASDAQ is best market in world for stock trading?
2. what do you mean by "it was just open season for me by the HFT folk". Sorry couldn't follow you here at all.

Thanks

 

Actually bad trading, especially this year.
NASDAQ is fully electronic and there are no "specialists" interfering with fair market. That said, I'll most likely trade the big board too as/if the size grows.
Posting my stops even as iceberg signals the high frequency guys to trade around me, I'm very sensitive to slippage. This isn't a problem in the less thin areas, obviously.
