Daily Trade Highlights From Trader Bubs
If you want to get an idea of what day trading is like, go no further than traderbubs.com. Bubs as he is nicknamed was the top commentator here on the blog in October, and this is his spotlight post.
This review will tell you about Bubs, his investment blog, and close with a contest he is hosting that you definitely need to check out.
About Bubs
Bubs was born and raised in Chicago. He graduated from Northern Ill. in 03 and started his first job as a bond trader spread trading 5 year cash futures against 10 year futures. The company went under after 6 months, but the job helped him find that he loved trading.
It was three years later in 2006 that Bubs decided he wanted to trade for a living and spent the back half of 06 honing his skills. Then in 2007 he made the move to full time trading; he hasn’t looked back since (read the full story here).
Blog Content
The content is very simple to follow and consistent, each day Bub’s shares his recap of how much he made or lost day trading and swing trading the stock market, along with the trades he made that day. What’s cool is that alongside his trade recaps Bubs shares his lessons and insight that he gains as he goes.
What makes Bub’s blog good is that any investor can benefit from reading it. It is interesting to see what Bub’s did exactly on his big up days, and what he learned on his big down days. A good day for Bubs is I say when he makes over $500, which you can find an example of here, and a bad day is naturally any day he ended up in the hole overall.
A Contest with a Cash Prize
Bub’s is giving away his last month’s adsense earnings away in a contest to see who can most closely guess the close of the Dow on Friday November 30th. Check out the post for more info, all guesses must be submitted by November 23rd.
All you need to do to enter is simply leave a guess as a post. Good luck beating me though, I think I have this close pin pointed.
Closing Notes
Bubs is a good trader and is making his living doing what he loves. His blog traderbubs.com is a great place to gain some insight and get a simple idea of what a full time day and swing trader does each day.
