Friday Trade Review and Big Mouth Stocks 10/23/2009
The big mouth stock was a winner but very messy. I was able to take a peek at the market in the afternoon and made one fast trade. It would be great if easy time I looked at the market for 5 minutes - I would make a $100.

WTF - how more stupid could I have gotten or lucky??? 10/21/2009
This is beyond stupid. I bought a stock. Double up on it on the next up tick. Thought I sold it but doubled up again. I forgot about it thinking I was flat. Checked on it in the last hour of trading and saw another setup and bought more stock still not knowing I was really long from before. Finally dawns on me, I am way too long this stock. In a panic to sell, I buy 300 more shares. Finally I get out down only $59. At one point, I was down over $600 without knowing it and if I held on to the end of the day, I would have been down close to $3000. Talk about lucky - talk about being stupid. I am frustrated with the way I need to enter my web based IB orders and I paid a price for that today. Insane.

Tuesday Big Mouth Stocks and Trade Review 10/20/2009
Above was the big mouth stock of the day and I traded it poorly. I also did something I can't remember ever doing before. I traded a little around the open and then right after lunch. I logged into my account near the close to find I was long some stock - WTF? I forgot to cancel my stop loss orders on my earlier trades and they got filled. Thank god no major damage was done and one nearly ended up as a good trade but still dumb - so very dumb.

The numbers are not big but I have convinced myself again I think I know what I am doing. I was able to advantage of the Big Mouth Stocks on Monday and Tuesday this week. Now that I am back to trading (but on a very limited time table), I need to increase my size and aggressiveness back to the levels I have done in the past. I am hoping that i spend little time in front of the screen compared to the past but I am taking better trades i think because of it. My oldest enemy I have has really rise his head again - NOT SITTING ON MY HANDS. This week and last could have been great weeks if I only gave trades to work 10 to 15minutes to work instead of my 5 to 10 minutes.

It is just great to be back to my life again - working, trading, racket ball, doing things around the house, enjoying my big ass new TV(I nearly cry during every football game now) and a course being with my honey.

What happened to my daughter sumer was a nightmare but it has sown the seeds for a lot of good to come out of it. For one thing, I have never had this close of a relationship with her until now because of a lot of stupid events of life. She is a special kid and very special to me. Over the years, we have meant many people together. It is funny - most people remember me but no one ever forgets meeting her. That says a lot.

Stimulus plan II - Denarii Style
After spending an extra $4000 this summer because of my daughter fall, I spent $3000 on a big ass HD TV and stand. My wife bought $4700 in furniture this weekend where her sister came along and bought $3500 herself. Later this month I am buying a new $1500 PC because one of my trading PCs died on me. And next month I will be spending about $2000 on my car for needed repairs and maintenance and I will be taking a week long trip to Florida for Thanksgiving.

Friday Big Mouth Stcoks 10/9/2009
Both of these were crap. It is hard to play Big Mouth Stocks that are really big cap stocks unless something like NUE is up 4% because of the big mouth and all the other steel stocks are down. Since the first of the Month, the big mouth stocks have sucked big time.

I am more hopefully with Monday picks being NVLS and WCRX. He will see. No trades for me on Friday.

Thursday Trade Review and Big Mouth Stocks 10/1/2009
The two charts are the big mouth stocks from today. The second chart sucked and was a low volume entry that did not work. I first one I wanted to cry. Usually Big Mouth stocks that pop in after hours but open lower the next day make for the best big mouth trades. I could not really watch the open but I thought what the hell and put in an order to sell NVDA at 15 even above 10 minutes before the open. I checked about 10 minutes after the open and found I missed a great trade by 2 cents. The open was 14.96 and the high tick was 14.98 - damn. By the time I looked at it, I thought the opportunity was gone. It turned into a big winner with out me.

Wednesday Trade Review and Big Mouth Stock 9/30/2009
Tuesday Trade Review 9/29/2009
Just a goofy trade. I thought stocks would decline later in the day and I entered a short on X in the middle of the day. I picked a two hour bottom and was happy to get out with a small profit.
