    i set up a couple parameters myself. and it spit out TXMD

    i looked at the moving average, volume, rsi14 and it seems to be pointing at favorable conditions. What do you think ? is there something to TXMD?

    That is terrible for OCUL holders. but, from what i've read so far, its not reccomded to hold anything after hours with what we're trying to do ( scalping ) is this a general rule? or a preference?

    remember that a real scalp it is only 2 to a max 3 minutes .. many time it only takes few seconds... so all position are closed there and then
    then day trading it could take all day (depend how each use their time frame or target etc...)
    only swing will have open position after close
    I am a scalper with few day trades (if the stock that I am in still strong I could stay in few more minutes or until I see a weakening ,,,

    but I don't like to talk about me... my method it is so personalized that not only it is hard to explain but harder to executed for someone ... remember the 2 different heads have 2 different visions therefore different execution methods

    read my first 2 posts I explained the base of my trading-scalp otherwise I keep on repeating the same story and other could get a bit fed up reading them ...
    cheers :)

    hi Wagas sorry but during trading hours (I trade even in pre market) I can't do many posts regarding trading etc.....
    but you asking the wrong person I am a scalper not a swinger (few exceptions but I look into different things not tools)

    look at this it could help

    today I trade-scalped without the worry about writing it alive... what a stress free ...fully concentrated
    other one sold CLF 7.53 +25
    IMMU 8.40 - 8.50 +10
    VBIV sold it now 4.97 (ask) +9 (this one I thought with that sudden it move would take me to 5 ... but prefer getting out)

    wow my experiment worked better then expected ... or just luck :rolleyes::rolleyes::p

    :D:D well we all have different method ;)
    you shoulda traded SPWR I nearly told you but I was too busy scalping
    go and study the following :D
    scalp>>in 9.20 -9.40 then back in 9.39/.40 (6 minutes later) to 9.65/.68 or day trade >>> in before 9.40 sell 9.65 /68 or decide for yourself if holding a bit longer or take the profit ... use the 5 min it is better it take a lot noise away
    (that because I excepted to open and go so I woulda been ready (it was on my daily list) but don't risk if not sure)
    same with IMMU in around 8.40 and for a day trade still good now but at 8.77 I woulda have closed ... never be greedy ... even with few ticks less it make a nice profit)

    good luck;):)

    Hope you have been playing b/c has been pretty good the last few days. Had just posted/asked if anyone was playing the $5's - was late this morning so missed them BUT saw ticker drop down under $6 as soon as question posted and grabbed some and was very happy with my sell @ $6.40 until it kept going up. :mad: Not sure how this FDA thing is going to play out - drug is not the problem and have read many opinions so will see if take less than 3 month or more etc but plan on watching/playing.

    AND thanks for more olives BUT no green ones this time which are my favorite :(
