  5. Guys just post your screen shots of either your net PL or your list of executions at end of day. Don't worry about posting your calls in real time with this kind of market. It'll probably help your trading since its one less distraction.

  7. By the way, look at the anemic depth of bids and offers. Its Obviously run by machines now. I'm using marketable limit orders to buy above offer prices and below bid prices for sell orders. Using the market order button is brutal. From the time my eyes sees the price I want traded to the time I actually hit the order button (less than 1 sec) price has already ran 6-8 ticks ahead of me.

  10. Well this journal is also about discussing the market in general, not just posting real time trades.
