    ha, 80 ticks.

    I didn't tighten stops on a few trades, which screwed me.

    Sorry to hear it. I wasn't sure if you were just making a joke like I do. :) You'll be okay. Chopped out again right now. Whole market is undecided it seems.

    Actually I just got here. Haven't traded yet other than I just did a quick TF scalp. :) A lot of my CL trades are more scalps so sometimes I don't have time to post them as I'm focused on the trade itself. But I post some of them.

  8. I slept in and during the 40 minutes that I B.S'd with my girlfriend I could have been out fo this PIG ..OIL.... anyway.. I am out.. down 543 on 350 shares in the UCO.. lol.. it is sure to fall now that I am out of it!
    3 out of 3 overnight holds for 2 days or longer have been losers... I know i said this last time.. but that was my last swing at swing swing trading.. 3 strikes and I am out.. problem is that these losing swing trades.. even though the amounts are not huge.. they wear on you ... mentally.. it is easy to get married to them... they screw up any chance you ever had at doing intraday trades..

    I lost $ 7,000 trying to swing trade CMG ..short.. $ 4,000 swinging oil short.. maybe I am just on the wrong side with my swings.. well I did pick some risky assets to short!

    - BOT 350 UCO Stock 53.999 USD ISLAND 08:41:32 1.75 -533.83
    BOT 50 UCO Stock 53.99 USD ISLAND 08:41:32 1.00 -76.58
    BOT 125 UCO Stock 54.00 USD ISLAND 08:41:32 0.00 -190.21
    BOT 175 UCO Stock 54.00 USD ISLAND 08:41:32 0.75 -267.04
