Been awhile since I've made a blog post. I abandoned STT because after a year of trading with it, the negatives outweighed the positives for me. Doesn't mean it's not a good solution. Does mean I gave it a year to fit my workflow and it didn't work for me. I've found I have my best results using DAS Trader Pro for my trading platform, Trade Ideas for my scanners, and Benzinga Pro for news scanner. This setup isn't for everyone. Total monthly cost is roughly $450. I make that it in one trade and I don't have to worry about anything. More later.

Hi @drakegaston. I saw your question about $FCEL in today's chat. Sorry everyone jumped on you for asking a legitimate question. That's the one downside to this chatroom. They don't want questions during trading hours yet they fill the chat with bogus predictions. Kinda weird like that. Anyways, the best advice I can give you is to take a ticker you're interested in and plug it into yahoo finance to check the price history and any news. With $FCEL you'll find that it dropped from $11 to $0

$0.25, lost it's biggest investor last year and went through a 12 to 1 reverse split a couple of months ago. Not worth the investment. Even if the price moved a nickel and you bought 10k shares, you would't gross more than $500.

Hi! I saw your question in the chatroom about CMEG. I've been using them since last August. Here's my review: Takes a little longer than a week to get setup with them. They are state certified in Trinidad and considered a partner of Interactive Brokers. They abide by NASDAQ rules and are in my opinion doing everything right. They have two platforms. I use DAS Pro Trader. It's more versatile than Trade Station. They are dirt cheap when it comes to commissions. $5.90 for a complete trade plus ECN fees of a few pennies. Trades are instantaneous. Customer Service used to be spot on. I mean I could call or text and get an immediate response. That now lags to more than a day. This is because they've grown exponentially. Of course, if you need trade help, the desk will pick up on first ring. You do have unlimited trades (No PDT rule) and they offer staggered margins up to 6:1. Use of margin trading is up to you. Just remember it's risky. The downside is they only accept wires for funding. That means your first couple of funding wires will take 2-3 business days before your account reflects it. Once you build history with them (no margin calls, pay your fees, etc.) they will auto-credit your account within an hour of you notifying them of the wire with proof. Send them a copy of the wire receipt for instance. Bottom-line is I use them every day and have no troubles. Not to mention, the Turks and Caicos make a great vacation...errrrr...business destination to check on your trading activities.

Thanks for your insight Jay. I've played UXIN each of the past 4 days and have made money on 3 of the 4. I suspect you're correct that playing a 5th day even with the Alibaba deal is chancing it. I must admit that NBEV, $CRON, INNT and $ONCS are also on my watchlist for the reasons you stated plus these are all previous runners that hold their spikes well. I've been shying away from APHA because of the looming lawsuits and hate mail flowing back and forth between the C-level, board and la
