  3. You're right, that really does have a negative effect on my trading. I haven't tried using stop and target orders to get me out of trade yet. I might try that on a simulator tomorrow. Use a 30 pt stop loss, and a 60 pt target so 1:2 R/R. Let see how it does on the simulator. If I have a good win rate with this technique, I will start doing it with real $.

  7. There's a really disgusting scene in that movie. I started gagging in the theater and if I weren't someone who never throws up, I would have. I still get sick when I think of that movie, now -- weeks later. Some of it was pretty funny, if not for that bit. You'll know it when you see it.

    Hmmm... I see my portfolio has dropped in value quite a bit. Let's say... a lot of buying opportunities have arisen...

  10. sold YM 9512 (+.05) -- total of 50 points yesterday. Starting today flat. For the ES futures there's a choice between two exchanges for the quotes on IB. Which do you use?
