Hey, I love SEPR--too bad it only made me money in my paper trading account! Unfortunatly, I don't feel I understand it well enough to buy it for real, my loss. On paper, I sold off all my roach motels several weeks ago in order to start paper trading the risky way--one stock at at time, so far very good. Of course, if it had not worked I would not have mentioned it of course, maybe if I can prove to myself that I have some skill, something I have never been sure of anyway, I'll to some degree, do the same in the real world. In fact, at the moment I'm cleaning out some stuff out of my wife's account to do a trade... although, I have to admit it is to buy more of one of my nanocaps I think will run. You might be able to guess what I like, the vcall thing and all over the weekend. I'm going to track doing the paper thing versus longer term holding my nano-caps, I'll be sick if the new strategy works better than what I was doing. So any ideas for what to do with 70k of paper money? That is what I have now to work with--as opposed to 58k in the real world--stil stuck in what Rick calls fourth or fifth tier. I think this is a good way to redirect my frustration, and if I screw up, well then, I'll feel a lot better about not churning my real-world account.
