Yes I am....i could throw money into my fireplace and do better then i was doing over at the NASD for the last 2 years i was there..
Its all hedgefund Black-boxs trading through algorythms running the show over there.....MOMO is dead...even swing traders im sure are gettin lambasted. Hence the volatility (programs stopping people out all day)
see that you got me ramblin!

I start work at 11:00 AM eastern and leave my house at 10:30. So if something is moving in the morning I play it. If it's iffy I leave it alone, or else it could tank while I'm in the car. I do have 1 hr in the morning though, and can usally make quick trades off news(in and Out). I do have tues, sun, and fridays off though. I work at a call center and I can make trades in between calls, but more than half the time my microcaptrade doesn't work because the computer's security.
But F this, I need to find a job with a 4-12 **** so I can trade and not miss these runs.

yep like they say, treat it like a one night stand, dont fall in love with any stock, but man it sure is fun watching yourself make alot of money in a short time, and it sure does suck losing it just as fast if your not careful,

Part time for me, for three years. Once I got the greed bug under control it has begun to make sense. One more year and I believe I'll be full time.

full time (3.30PM-10PM my time) but found a $25/h night job so I might take it to maximize my account and to be safe in case something goes wrong, then sleep in the morning lol. Im a 22y young kid still living at home, so I dont have a lot of costs. It's so addicting though, my friends say I'm obsessed

That's my strategy, too, because I go to work an hour after open. XKEM was the last stock I was in overningt. If there's a good PR I'm in and out, like GFCI, made 69% in minutes...Then went to work.
