karennma,
Don't suppose you would want to share your .10 cent system?

Eman:
I screwed up bigtime yesterday.
I usually put the sell order in immediately after the buy's been filled.
But, yesterday, after I put in the order, I got up and put the dog out and emptied the trash.
That took about 2 minutes.
When I came back, the daRn thing had already moved 20 cents.
My heart sunk. It was the "sick, empty" feeling I'm all too familiar with.
I KNEW the mistake I'd make immediately.
Sloppiness and overconfidence will screw you up everytime!

I'm not doing anything "special".
On a cheap stock (under $5) like FAZ, a 0.10 cent move on 2,000 shrs will give you $200/day minus commission. If you trade it twice, $400/day.
Yesterday, thank G*d, I only bought 1,000 shrs, 'cause it turned out to be a failed trade. (see post, mistake documented).
It was a good trade in the sense that I GOT the move within 3minutes, BUT, I neglected to put the sell order in immediately, so I scr*wed myself.

Beezer:
What I do is check the futures. Right now, the futures are up.
That means FAZ will be down BIGTIME, which is good ... another opportunity.
I will continue to post here. .. my failures as well as successes.
If I don't post, I'm not trading.
I don't trade everyday.

Today is options expiration, which makes trading FAZ all the more dangerous.
I DON'T like "danger".
LOL!
