Just watched Superman - there was a scene in it where Supes is all but defeated, and during that moment in a silent theater it took all my self control not to yell “Martha!”.

Bored, thinking about a movie based on 80's action shows. I imagine Colonel Lynch finds KARR's remains and hands them over to The Firm for research. The Firm of course integrates the CPU and everything-proof coating into a heavily armed CH-53 Sea Stallion they had been working on named "Greywolf".

Haven't posted in a while but I've been trading every day. Some winners, some losers, but no real gains. I decided to start playing with Thinkscript and believe I've come up with a decent indicator to carve out some profit. Here's what it looks like on today's gappers:

I took a hit a few weeks back, decided to review my day trades and update my strategy. My previous strategy wasn't bad, it just really focused on a strong W/L ratio and required a lot of cash to do that. This new strategy is more return focused so lets see what happens. Can you tell what I'm doing?

Mistakes were made today.
1) Didn't grab my dime on the initial pop
2) Got in after too many reds on the pullback due to FOMO regrading item 1
3) In the break-even mindset so got out even when there was strength

#Mondays, nothing looked good, and nothing looked good Friday. Thought I'd play $ADIL and had to double down twice to break even, but ended up making enough for a Happy Meal. At the time of my initial buy-in, thought MACD was about to crossover and take me to VWAP but that didn't happen. #DayTrading

Played $EDBL today, missed the first pull back but got in anyways. Spreads were terrible, $.35 at some points. A bit of a halting mess at open, wish I had gotten in at the second break of VWAP after the bell. #DayTrading, #NoRegerts

$LPCN had a great pop after the first pullback, but gave it all back. Wish it had popped up on my scanner sooner. #daytrading, #damnslowscanner

$LASE was the play of the morning. I sat out because it had already pulled back once by the time it hit the scanner. The pros waited for the MACD crossover around 8:15, then helped drive it up over 50%. Had a nice $.50 pop at the bell too. #daytrading, #stickwithyourstrategyevenwhenithurts

Got in this position early, held it for over an hour, and bailed when I hit break even for the day. Then it shoots up 40% over the next 15 minutes. #daytrading #holdyourlosers
