You seem like a smart guy, I am sure you can get some kind of idea from my positions, if you even think they are real. I am not here to talk about the amount of money I have. I post my pics, my profits and losses from them, but I don't like to talk about my personal income I have in my account.

Your positions don't tell me much. I am actually wondering what percentage of your account you swing trade currently in this market enviroment. Most people are at about 40-50% max.

I am not really sure how that is any more personal than putting up daily profits and exact positions taht you own (which you already do) especially when you are completely anonymous on a site like this. But, that is your call. Just trying to get a sense as to how committed you are to the market at this time.

I personally have an account of roughly 370K and before today I was barely at 25% invested. This is obviously little league compared to you.

If you want % I have invested in the market as far as swing trades, I would say roughly 40% of my account is in the market and the rest is on the sidelines for daytrade opportunities. I have slowed down my daytrading of late because of everything else that is going on in my personal life. I can't be sitting in front of a computer as much as I have before, so I am picking up more swing trades of late because of it, I was probably in a range of 20-25% invested in the past, but again, I was daytrading a lot and had fewer swings.

OVTI holding up well on the close, I hope I don't jinx it, but I like the fact that there is no profit taking at the close so far.
