ST - Trading FWIW, Schwab was the big winner today booking commission after commission, but with two small wins and a multitude of wasted trades I did managed to book a profit for the session. Hey, a win is a win, and after sitting deep in the hole for most of the month, I'll take it!

Current position: None

Todays AMAT trades:

Sold 2000 shares at $43.50, long at $43.50 BREAKEVEN
Covered 2000 shares at $42.90, shorted at $43.50 GAIN +$1,200

Covered 2000 shares at $42.70, shorted at $42.70 BREAKEVEN
Covered 2000 shares at $42.82, shorted at $42.82 BREAKEVEN

Covered 2000 shares at $43.03, shorted at $43.03 BREAKEVEN
Covered 2000 shares at $43.10, shorted at $43.14 GAIN +$80

ST - Trading Sam, Interesting observation, thanks for pointing it out. I now see what you're saying. I saw some selling in the morning that kept me thinking it would resume again. I fought the trend trying to time a pullback that simply never materialized. I suspect my dark-side was trying to will AMAT into submission, but the force was there in opposition.
