Days like today make me wonder why we often complain about HFTs so much. I mean think about it. All you had to do was do the following:<\/p>\n
1. Buy SPYs at 103.02 on the open at risk below 99c. Ultimate piker play
\n2. Buy BIDU at 69.80 and risk below the magic 75c level
\n3. BUY AMZN at 111.05 and risk below the magic whole
\n4. BUY CLF after the whole lifts and play momentum and sell the close
\n5. this one is a bit more advanced. Look out. But you buy 59.26 and risk below the magic quarter…to catch 3 points. what’s so hard about that?
\n6. Sell BP at 33.20 and never be out of the money. i mean talk about infinite risk:reward.
\n7. Wait for FDO to open at 37 let it bounce 30c and then give it a nickel. What a great short.<\/p>\n
you see these are all standard plays in the piker playbook for scalpers. What’s so hard about that? why aren’t we all making millions?? <\/p>\n
