  1. And stopped out for a point. Watch us sell of now. :)

    Could possibly have stayed with a 3 point stop, but this morning have been very choppy and it makes me doubt my initial hypothesis.

  3. Target? Your mind is greater if you kept your initial stop. I may have played this one too tight. Could easily have taken off 10 points, but wanted to hold for a greater move.

    I remain bearish here helow 2505.

  5. Just closed it (95.25). Target was supposed to be 85 area but snatched it

    Still bearish. But been a fairly tough/choppy morning for me and that winner puts me nicely in the green so probably closing up shop for the weekend

    More or less same here, Divemaster, but never really worked :D Thought about going the instructor route, but working conditions kept getting worse, glad I didn't since I'm not getting any younger.

    Commercial divers are a different breed, I don't think I would manage. Respect.

    Good rationale and entry, LF.

    IMHO, if you're going to use super-tight stops, then you have to be ready to re-enter super quick as well. The ATR for a mere 10 seconds now is like 2 points, 5 points for 1 minute...

    Edit: but I feel your pain, I'm a cheap mofo and get stopped out at BE often :D

    Dive Master is a step above me but the diver I worked for would be at 300' in freezing water with zero visibility, wearing a hard hat helmet and gloves trying to identify and fix a problem which a competent mechanic, welder or electrician may find challenging on the deck. Not only difficult but dangerous. Of course they got paid big money.
