Default Re: Fundamental vs. Technical Analysis

Hi Dan,
I wasn't scaling into the position. I made a couple of errors. One was, for some reason, I thought it was a 50K account instead of 500K. Another was I didn't quite understand the trading mechanics of the contest site. I didn't know about the 20 minute delay until later in the morning. I basically placed the orders on top of each other. It turned out ok. fwiw
edit: I placed one order before the market opened; I don't think you have the option to change an order once submitted on the contest site. A little different than real world.
