i juat sold SRS at 53 for profit and will by back on the pullback..i feeling the DOW down for a few days from here so im picking up TZA and SRS on pullbacks...most likely i will but crazy limit bid on stuff like 10% the closing price on volitile stuff for the morning open bell..cause thing spike down and then retrace..it works for me in this enviroment

raj..its not the % gain..its the percent of the move..10 cents on a dollar is just as good as 10 bucks on 100 dollars..get it?

10 cents on a dollar is 10% gain and 10 bucks on 100 dollars is also 10% gain....i am comfortable with even 5% gain...if i can get that, i dont mind selling the equities....thats why i listed % gain.....considering the short timespan i hold the stocks, effectively its even bigger % gain on your initial investment..dont you agree?

raj...with a 350 dollar buy in..to make money..it hase to go up 20%..to clear commissions..your are on a slow moving train to the poor house with trades like that my friend..oil has turned the corner and DXO is when oil is going up...you better off holding DTO..3 shares is the better play

Morpheus, I am in a rut holding too long. I have been up on everything but I am holding for big bux. What is a realistic % for profit. I'm down 700 from Christmas from just holding too long. Average $ 2k per trade.

mad..take small positions and be very awary of the overall direction of the market..it is now in a down trend..so play etf's that go up in this market
look at www.finviz.com and the heatmap..pick on the EFT tab and study this it will give you ideas..good luck..i had a great day today up about 1500 bucks.. in a down day..not bad and only taking $4-6 dollar positions on any one holding..im liking at this point DUG DTO SKF and SRS to name a few ..get to know what this symbols are leveraged to and go from there..good luck mad

another tip...during the last 20-30 minutes..if the dow is down or up real big...look for a retracement and play TNA (in a dow down day and TZA in a dow up day retracement)..works for me and maybe you too.

I'm in PLD and holding but if I had the funds I think I would constantly day trade this. don't know if anybody else has that same idea but it moves 3-7% at a time it seems.
