    Just Checking In

    While browsing for my hourly digest of nonstop pessimism on ZeroHedge, I felt a tremor in the Force.  A feeling I had not felt since….  Well I look over and recognize that familiar iBankCoin calling card. I’m just wondering, are they making enough money that they can afford to advertise for the gravy, or are

    TNA & TZA Tuesday

    Here's a look back at TNA and TZA for monday nov 22, 2011.  As some of you know this is the only thing that I am currently day trading with as I like the leveraging that it provides.  Some of you have asked how I make my trades.  While it's a hard question to answer

    Robot Trading

      We as humans are emotional.  We aren’t robots.  But I am striving to become a little more like a robot when it comes to trading; kind of the opposite of that guy Data from Star Trek who wanted to become more human.  I have specific parameters and rules to follow and I repeatedly don’t

    Listen to Ryan! Plus some other decent moves to learn from 🙂

    Ryan called a great play on KITD (see below) to go long at the beginning of the day.  He then longed it as it broke out in a textbook play.  Good for about 5%.  Go Ryan!!!!  Some other decent plays are below, but from what I saw most of the good plays where shorts in

    Some random winning breakouts

    If you are interested in looking...still working on my breakouts after 10 am.  Today was a textbook day for this as the first 1/2 hour failed to produce long plays in most.  Notice how these breakouts can be fast and volatile.  I actually prefer the slower moving ones (look at ILMN).  But I'll take anything

    Some random loosing breakouts

    While I like to focus on the positives 🙂 , it's vastly more important to look at the moves that don't work.  Sometimes there is no rhyme or reason.  These 2 puzzled me today as they didn't move in line with the rest of the nasdaq group.  They aren't on my absolute favorites list yet.

    Down then up Nasdaq today…

    This was a really interesting day in the markets.  We started out looking long for the 1st half hour, and then the bottom fell out....one of the main reasons why I don't trade before 10 am typically.  I've seen this move happen way too many times to let it suck me in.  We then dropped

    MA Crossover Failures For Thur Nov 3

    I've been playing around with adding 2 moving averages to create a crossover buy or sell point.  This is by no means a new idea, but something that varies from person to person since you can create any moving averages you want.  I am using a 20 day Simple and a 30 day simple, based
