Splitlink said:Hi Datav,
Was the chatroom ok today? I came in late, said "hallo" to everyone and got answers but, after that there were a few comments about trading and I seemed to be by myself. No one said a dicky bird. When I opened two long trades and closed them, still no comments and so said goodbye. After signing off, I saw, on the other page, where it gives times and comments made, that several comments were made but mine were not to be seen.
I mention this, here, because all the faithfulls, you, Ian, Zigger and Don_h were there and chatting for a few minutes after me.
So, how did you all get on? I made 13 points on two long trades in the a.m. but you must have all made a good killing in the afternoon!

I think you must have been billy no mates in there because after you entered the room you said hi to everyone, commented on missing the action, asked me if I was having a go, I think, then commented on datav's scaling out his trades, then disappeared without trace, lost in space your name was not in the list
anyway good trades another good weeks points haul is on the way for you I think. keep up the good work
Morning datav
Could you elaborate for us a little more on your comments in the room on your stop strategy, I quite understand if you don't wish to.
interesting stuff here and in the chatroom, well done on your trades, good calls.
cheers
don
Splitlink said:Today was better. 39.5 points minus one 7.2 loss, I think it was. You really must have a go with a Fins account because they do have a very good chart system. They are alI I use.
Unless you are with someone else, of course, but you did mention that you were using Yahoo so I suppose not at the moment.
Stops? I use the bottom of the low bar and, also, if the reason for going in to the trade has failed I get out. For instance, a 123 situation that does not want break out and looks dodgy, I get out. There are plenty more situations coming up.
Thanks for the support, by the way.

datav said:This week has certainly been one of the most difficult to trade in the last few months. With the Dow closing at a new all time high, charts are indicating a good chance of a rise today.
lets hope we can catch the wave. Any questions, comments, ideas and contributions to our humble group very welcome on the T2W chat room.
Safe trading
