Dante (@DGTrading101)
Dante (DGTrading101) has been actively day trading for almost 6 years now, and quit his job as a financial analyst at a small consulting firm to trade full time in October of 2015. He’s always been drawn to high volatility momentum stocks, and IU really helped him navigate those waters. Between 2011-2014 he blew up multiple accounts learning everything the hard way, then finally found traction in late 2014 with a focus on smallcap short selling. Dante is a research-oriented fundamental trader, focused on reading tape, price, and volume. He is primarily looking for bigger picture moves rather than scalping. Dante strictly trades Nasdaq momentum names. His strategy is almost entirely short-biased, roughly 5/95 long/short strategy.

zZzz day here. Was hoping the ZN short worked but no dice really, small winner there and gave a little back on few others, nothing even worth mentioning. RTNB: I never got involved here today, killer ramp early then sit back & consolidated midday. Was tough...

Shewww...what a day. I did some very good things and some very stupid things. I absolutely nailed RTNB which saved my day and turned it green, but before that I totally botched MOMO, and had a small loser on SNAP as well. RTNB I want to save the discussion on...

TEVA: Starting to slowly take shape..emphasis on slowly, this is what happens when everyone wants the same trade. Had super long crowd feel today, I took a small loss on it. Got excited with the gap up + early push thought today was the day. Two things in...

Alright! First scan. Happy to be apart of the IU team and will do my best to provide value add for you guys. Lets jump right in SNAP: Where to begin with this one..I've been pretty vocal about it so as you can imagine I'm heavily short biased still. Nice...
