lol Houser, I just checked my account and I meant to put down 2k on TIGR (Roar!) and I accidentally put down 20k.  I sold back 18k for a nice quick accidental profit.  

Lol. Love it when that happens.  Usually goes other way for me. Lol.

Fucking VXRT is backtracking like a motherfucker and I didn’t take profits yesterday afternoon, planned to wait until market open today. Fuck

I learned the hard way a while back, never hold through data results. Your stock will skyrocket or get smacked; the risk/reward has never been there for me with something so volatile.

or do what I do sometimes.  when you buy set an auto sell at a 50% gain and at a 25% loss.  Seems to work out pretty well.  At least lately.

can't sell premarket or after hours is the problem and that's when these results are typically published. I usually have a different stop loss on my swings. If I'm swinging the stock for more than a couple days, my stop loss is much lower than if I'm swinging it for a day. My day trade flips have a stop loss at 10-15% and then I play the gain as it comes and keep adjusting my % gain as the stock goes but enough to handle a little dip in price. I also work on my computer all day/every day so I'm able to have a monitor strictly for stocks.

Some are probably sick of hearing this story but here we go:

 

started my bonus career in late 1997 early 1998 when Golden Palace sent me an offer for 20% bonus on my deposit.  The rollover was 1x deposit + bonus.  I didn't trust them so I started with a $20 deposit.  Cashed out a $5 winner and they credited my 20 back to my CC and sent me a money order for my $5 winnings (I still have that MO).  These 20% bonuses were twice weekly so next I did $100, then $1000, and after a while I was doing 10k deposits twice weekly.  I didn't even have 10k, but it went on my card and they reversed the charge on cashout so I never really saw a bill. This went on for some time as I built up my roll.

I hustled every bonus I could find, turning my little hobby into a lucrative career.  I formed a private gambling group with other pioneers in the bonus world where we shared key information on where to play and who was paying, etc.  This group paid the UF director of computer sciences to program a gambling bot that can play perfect strategy BJ and video poker.  We hit +EV blackjack games on Unified Gaming's software that was paying .22% of wagers. With the use of this bot I was also able to gamble for 32 different identities splitting the profits with each one.  I had the bot running 24/7 on 6-7 different machines.  Casino ON Net had monthly wagering bonuses for the most wagers with a top prize of 10k.  My accounts took down about 5-6 of the top 10 prizes every month for a couple years.  At the time I was printing money to the tune of 60-80k per month.

After the dumb UIGEA thing that put the brakes on funding casinos, I slowed down and eventually moved on to online sportsbooks.  That is when I joined TheRX in 2005ish.  From there I did poker and sports.  The days of easy money was gone but I dabbled in it for extra cash for several years.  Now I am strictly playing cryptos and the stock market. 

That's awesome! How did you protect yourself from the UF CS guy not stealing your idea with the bot he created for you?
