lol well not literally nickels and dimes, but figuratively, if you are scalping $2, $3, $4 bucks off of a $250 stock, then yeah that's for nickels and dimes

And congrats on your success with that, you must be a very nimble trader... my comment is that it is just so weird to want to do that on a non-stop UP stock... short-scalping one of the strongest stocks in the universe, when it seems like it would be sooooooo much easier and simpler just to go long it with a trailing stop, and spend your short day-trading efforts on something which is in a long-term downtrend, or one which is likely to reverse hard, rather than in one that goes relentlessly up on jaw-dropping earnings and revenues quarter after quarter after quarter...
