Hey Bill, rule#1- Never use a market order! congrats, you just failed!

Unless you've got a deathwish...

If you are trading a fast moving stock, always use a limit order (be safe an enter an order 1/8 above the current ask if you thinks its got 'legs').. this also establishes mentally what your top dollar entry point is and have the discipline NOT TO CHASE...

I also notice that whole numbers are usually interesting stops and tops... (eg: 21, 10, 7, 52.. whatever, the number with no fractions).

In addition, as i mentioned earlier, mms are getting very sneaky now.. and throughout the day, you can usually get a good run once in most stocks.. its the naieve ones that see it pullback and assume that another run is emminent, thats how mms lure you...

I hope all you daytraders are using a lvl2 and tos feed... you are, right? There's your rules #2: Gotta have lvl2 and tos

Anyone use bollinger bands, money flow or stochastics intraday for buy sell point?

thanks

Snipe'
