Friday Trade Review 8/8/2008

One nice trade in NUE. I got in at the right time, had the right size (500), held thru a short amount of pain and then peeled shares off when the market gave me reason to. Why can't I do this all the time on both my winning and losing trades. I should give myself some credit - I now do this about 20% of the time when a couple of months ago I never did it.
-
The other trades were just crap. I had two quick trades in TRA and MOS - both should have been with 300 shares instead of 100 and I only took 15-20 cents when both could have easily netted 50.

The numbers:
Stocks: gross +166 net +147 shares 3400
Stock Futures: none
Forex: none
