[09:42] {Threei}  with small stocks/big lots every cent means a lot
[09:43] {Threei}  simple math:
[09:43] {nemo} let me take my shoes off
[09:43] {Threei}  10K shares, 3 cents lost on bad execution,
[09:43] {Threei}  compare it to commissions
[09:43] {Threei}  and to polish it off, imagine bad execution on a stop if stock falls fast
[09:43] {Threei}  it will be way worse than 3 cents in many cases

[12:38] {Threei}  this is why I stay inactive guys
[12:38] {ese} me...no nemo stopped
[12:38] {Threei}  and recomend you to do the same
[12:38] {Threei}  look at what happened ever since our morning plays
[12:38] {Threei}  long stall,
[12:39] {Threei}  very slow and narrow movement slighltly up,
[12:39] {Threei}  stall,
[12:39] {Threei}  slow drift down, narrow again
[12:39] {Threei}  what you have here is:
[12:39] {Threei}  no range wide enough to play it,
[12:39] {Threei}  not breakout,
[12:39] {Threei}  no breakdown,
[12:39] {Threei}  so name me a strategy that would work
[12:40] {dino} up,down, down, up
[12:40] {ese} market will probably head up this afternoon...maybe con recoop some then
[12:40] {Threei}  the skill to deploy in this situation is two-fold
[12:40] {Threei}  1. stay on a sideline and wait for something to shape up
[12:40] {Threei}  2. fend off attempts to engage you into activity by magoo and Co {G}
[12:41] {nemo} Apply your skills in the environment in which they apply
[12:41] {nemo} Don't try to apply them where they don't fit
