We saw a good day of trading with Citigroup (C), Fusion-io Inc (FIO), and PNC Financial (PNC) hitting their targets inside the pivot. Harley-Davidson (HOG) did reach the pivot just before the close, but I close trades no later than two minutes from the market close.

The Live Trading Room is open on Thursday, unless there is a techinical problem. The room opens at the opening bell. There is no pre-market analysis or chat, because pre-market data has no effect on how or what I will trade. There are typically no trades within the first 15 minutes of the market session.
