Summary of Tuesday's Trading:
Losing Day.
Loss for the Day: $470.00
Today was especially frustrating!
A Confession:
In a reply to Lee Kramer's question, I had said the following:
"To avoid buying at the top or shorting at the bottom, I do not initiate a trade until there is a change in the overall direction of the market from either the initial euphoria or despair that the market exibits at the opening. And my experience with FortuneQ™ has shown that that a relatively reliable signal change usually occurs after the first 90 minutes of trading."

Yesterday, I did not follow my rule of waiting for that "signal change" before initiating a trade. I lucked out with my first trade for a paltry $50, and then immediately lost my shirt with the second trade. Had I waited for a reversal signal (the market was in a "Buy" mode almost the entire day), before initiating my trade, the result may well have been different.
Oh well, live and learn.

>>Do you post your QQQ trades when you put them on?<<
Yes, I do. There is a usually a lag of less than a minute between my trade fill and my posting on this board.
What trading room do you moderate?
Thanks for staying in touch...

Admirable attempt to mechanically trade the direction of the index. I'm sure once the market settles into a little more of a trend in either direction you will be able to work out your bugs and make it work for you. Good luck, I'll keep an eye out for your progress.
