  3. is there some reason you end up with odd numbers of shares like 81 .

  4. Yes. I position size according to my distance from my stop. My initial stop is 3 times 63 day ATR. So if I risk $500 per trade and my initial stop is 9 point away I get 55.55 shares..i`ll round it down. I am sure my broker hates me.......but it works for me.

  5. Got a good move on VC, should have added to it on the way up instead of pussing out. Been trading RIMM like shit lately - its been faking me out for the entire week.

    Still holding a base position in VRTX. Sold ADBE in after hours yesterday for a good gain.
