Ex-RB Short Term Traders

[DAVE_007]

NazTrader..you probably won't be up as early as I get up..
I get up my normal getting up time..4:30 am..even on my off days..to hunt stocks to trade.

I am a Production Supv. at a plastics plant. We work 3 days on, 3 days off, with some minor variations sometimes. A 4 shift, 'continuous', never shut down, 24hr a day operation.
I work the 6AM-6PM 'day' shift. We make in flight drinking cups for Delta, US Airways, for motel chains, deli-containers..http://americanplasticind.com/

With the 2~3 days off during the week most of the time, I 'trade stocks' on my off days. the first 3 years I basically lost my butt..Now,thru many trials and errors, this year it's all coming together for me. I may become a full time trader early this coming year..give up the 'day' job..last month was a 'milestone' month for me..I made as much on stocks as I made at work. Cool! If I can keep doing this, & even snowballing it more I'll definately go 'full time' trading. I use Freetrade.com as my 'broker'..
Scottrade was killing me on broker fees, especially trading the OTC's, what with the higher fees and all.

I mostly stick to stocks $5 and under, and of late, have made more money on penny stocks. I like those fast movers. 3 days is a looonnggg hold for me..one day/day and half is about average. Hopefully I can be a help to this board..and I hope to pick up some good tips from you guys.

I did 44 trades last month..(to illustrate how much I trade)

gotta go look around now..
