Watching [AD's] trading sure is an education.

Scalpers are paid for adding liquidity to the market. AD does it so well that he makes it appear easy. But don't be deceived. It is not easy for most people to do this. I believe that watching Cary's investing may be a more practical education for most people.

Welcome to the thread.

RE: "Watching your trading sure is an education...."

Fargonaut, I was feeling all cocky and such after your post and then promptly got smacked by a poorly timed short play. I guess the education here is that I should have stayed on the sidelines like I had planned earlier. I knew the trading was difficult today, and I've been saying for the past couple days that I thought the market was going to rock to the upside this week, yet I chose to fight the trend anyway. I'm going to walk away here for the day and book my first daily loss in quite some time. I'm not complaining! I was due for a hit and it's all an expected part of the game - ya can't win 'em all! Good luck to you.
