The title says a lot. Trades in AAPL,GS,BKE(thanks Goat),COP,BAC,MON,QQQQ. I think I trade MA just because it always tries to burn me-it's a personal thing between us. I'm down to holding 10 stocks-I added a couple today, but I'm still thinking about going flat at the end of every day. But my swings do okay too.
Had some bad fills today and some how a GS trade with a bracket of 50 cents went of and gave me a 5 cent loss. Sometimes IB and my shortened two click orders just go off when I hit enter while I'm throwing the key board around. I've seen orders get canceled just because I touched the wrong key. But the speed on entries is a must--I remember way back when I owned 50 shares-hit sell--my platform defaults to 100--and now I'm short 50 shares trying to figure out what I just did. And then I get out of the short-made the same mistake again and end up long another 50 shares, whew, it was hard to make money back then!
Robot: 24 winners, 5 losers, profit of 142$. I'm getting closer to let him run live for hours, today with my extra profits would have been a good time. But when I'm moving a ton of trades it is hard to watch Robot, I just leave him to himself.
Other Stuff: My new lamp showed up and my new big ass tv finally is plugged back in and has a picture. I've owned this brand new tv as a paperweight for a week now. I sure hope it can pull out more than 1 day of viewing pleasure this time.
Fantasy calls: Girls, 4 days of working out in a row--the muscles are starting to pop. I'll be taking reservations as soon as I stop aching from the pain. CALL EARLY hint, hint, nod, nod, nudge, nudge, need I say more?
