In the IRA (which don't count on the daily totals)
added 50 DSX @ 11.99
added 50 ENTR @ 11.91

That dip just before the close looks a lot bigger in real life

Green + 33

added 20 TGH @ 28.69
out 50 FTNT @ 32.29 + .36
     Just didn't want to lose the profit
     had a misprint calling this ROVI for a couple of days...but I knew what I meant

Green + 64

added 50 FTNT @ 31.93
out 10 ROVI @  60.13 + 2.10


Since the Gorilla spilled over into it's 5th screen, I had to move around my charts.  I'm good now for 5 more personals charts and 11 more Gorilla Trades charts ...hmmmm....now if I could get Day Trading Radio to fit on it's half a screen....I need more space
     AVP was just a penny away from taking me out...it was close...but only a dollar today....shooooot hurry up and go down!

Other stuff:  The six pack abs by Christmas sign gets to live for another year...too many Christmas treats for me.
Lift kit for the jeep arrived....I'm learning suspension parts.....hope I don't end up with a 3 legged jeep or something

added 20 ADTN @ 36.27
added 20 ROVI @ 58.01
added 10 APA @ 118.64
added 20 QLIK  @ 26.77

Red - 8

Out 20 TX @ 41.45 + 2.32
     took down my stop over a dollar ago
Added 20 MTZ @  14.52

Guess my stop game on the right

Red - 21

Out 40 BAC @ 13.15 + .48
Out 5 X @ 58.67 + 1.40  (from the IRA)
     once I took a huge loss in WFC...and if I would have held it,  I would have had a profit....so BAC and X finally came back to green for me (after holding  huge losses)....it's not the best way to trade (holding a big loser),   a lot (almost all) of my losers were green once and I never took the profit...ZNH dumped today--glad I took profits yesterday.....It is a strange thing that the hardest part of trading really is taking a profit (this is way different then what I'm used to)  :)

3 day weekend

 

Other Stuff:  Birthday party on Saturday!!!!!

Green + 74

Guess my stop game on the right

grrrrrrrr......Today's lesson is....
you put those stops in and you can bet a market maker is gonna come and take your money, and then reverse it right after he cashes in on your dollar.....

Other Stuff:  Only 200 short on the lift kit, so I ordered it, hope I can put this thing together without killing my truck :)

Green + 46

Errrr.....I really wasn't paying attention today...counted my 64 and earlier coins.  Trying to get some money together for a lift kit for the Jeep.  So far I'm half way there...but I will have to install it myself....I guess that's part of the fun of lifting a Jeep.  So, really  I spent most of the day day dreaming...ya..."it's wanna be a daytrader"

Other Stuff:  Maybe if I sold some of that junk in the basement I could pay some other bills that are bugging me.

     If I were I daytrader would I have sold everything?  Leaving my longs is kinda tuff...the Rockstar teaches take your profits and move on to the next trade, and at the same time the Gorilla teaches a trade lasts a lot longer and he does have some huge gainers....but...at the same time the Rockstar pockets huge gainers all the time.......ME????  I'M JUST A WANNABE.....I DREAM A LOT

Guess my stop game on the right
