I'm not going to get into my day. I think I traded as many shares as I have in the last 2 months, today.
No kidding.
I'm exhausted and really, unable to write too much now. I'll have the RO report up later. It must have been a record day for the office... or at least close.
Shades of last August IMO.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely.
ReplyDeleteIt's all about the volume, isn't it?

Yes but also extremes imo. I bought a boat load of S&P's below/around 11k for a temp bottom after huge moves on the downside. Confusion on which shoe will drop next scenario creates great trading market. Hope you killed em DT.
ReplyDeleteI smell a 5-figure take....
ReplyDeleteDamit DT, you better not have made a lot of money today. I'm jealous already. It's bad enough having to read Stewie making records everyday.
ReplyDeleteOkay, let me stem this speculation. I got killed early... like, really killed, and ended up making it all back and then some. I finished up $700.
ReplyDeleteI haven't had a trading day like this since January, and I hope not to have another like it in awhile.
However, "old DT" may come out of the shadows if this volume holds up...

You cant complain about the lack of volume and trading ops and then be reluctant to let your hands go when the market is ripping. As a trader you cant have it both ways.
ReplyDeleteOh, totally. I hope it doesn't seem like I'm complaining. What I was saying is that the volume is back, and it gave me the opportunity to make my money back today... without that volume, no way I make back and finish positive.
ReplyDeleteI don't want another day like it anytime soon because it was very stressful. It ended well, but I went to a very bad place first.

I was just making a general statement. Believe me bro, iam very hard on myself. In this business your whole year sometimes comes down to a couple of huge months but if you trade scared you will never make it big. Its deff not easy but it is what it is.
