    Thats an old saying Destriero, referring to flattening out by EOD.
    I'm not sure what part of "hobby" you don't understand. The appeal is in winning the game, one that most can't. So I take back what I said, I would be very pissed if it went to zero I suppose.
    Re flattening out.... I learn from my mistakes. No one taught me how to do this. I have sustained significant losses in the past on overnight holds. If I hold now, its a very small position or a directional option play on no more than 10 or so.
    Discipline and risk management big guy. Its key.

    Stop embarrassing yourself. You lost money in 2017 while the SPX gained 20%. You can’t go five minutes without glaring contradictions. IB account LOL.

    You’re too stupid to insult so I am going to have to put you on double secret block, Mr. Bilderberg!

    I did lose money in 2017. I told everyone here that. Its not a secret bro.
    I have shared and discussed these losses and what I did wrong with several members here.
    I don't measure my self-worth with account balances obtained from trading acumen.
    You've never had a losing year? I find that hard to believe. I do believe you would never admit it in public.

    So good move, I agree, lets just ignore each other... you have dozens of other people here you regular pick on. They should suffice whatever need from whatever the past trauma is that afflicts you. Did you have an emotionally abusive father that ingrained in you that whatever you did "wasn't good enough"? You're very accomplished Destriero, its ok. You don't have to constantly prove yourself anymore.
    Good luck my friend. I hope the gig in Dallas works out for you. Sounds like fun.

    The 2585 area is certainly being worked for establishment. Would like a bit of pullback here to get long on a day trade.

    I view 2568 as a good stop out area right now no matter where I get long.

  8. Why long there? With all the overhead?? 2588-2590 is an inflexion pt, could go either way.

  10. I get that. Been one hell a run last few days...maybe a little too much too fast??

    If I was long caught short last few weeks, I'd be looking for every sweet spot to get out.

    Hey, it's your trade. GL!
