I found a few minutes this afternoon away from the day-job to actually paper-trade; from 2:30 to 2:53 pm. I had 6 winners out of 7 trades; a gain of $1.24 per share total on an 86% success rate. The first trade of the day was a nasty loss but I came back with 6 straight winners before going back to the admin work which actually helps pay the bills.
All trades on SKF
Long for a 1.38 loss
Short for a gain of .28 cents
Long for a gain of .10 cents
Long for a gain of .55 cents
Short for a gain of .79 cents
Long for a gain of .23 cents
Long for a gain of .67 cents at 14:53
