Added up all my missed profits from selling too early, in about 2 and half days comes out to nearly $4,000 That hurts a lot....
ThinkorSwim worked throughout the debacle at the open...I gave up going through the TD site a long time ago. Well off the lows!!!
funny to see the dow go from -1000 to -300, 700 point swings haven't even happened in the months the dow was trading near 18,000 now we have 700 point swings like there nothing.... nearly 2000 dow points lower in only 3 trading days!
yea thats what I was just thinking....I saw the massive come back but the failure to get the markets green to me has me very worried......if they fall apart once again there is going to be a nasty afternoon,
of course it has to be, if its not then I feel bad for the entire financial system, I got free trades out of TD account, at first they didn't want to give me anything so I said let me talk to your supervisor, a half hour later they came back and gave me free trades, still doesn't make up for the gains I could have had, missed out on $400 worth of profits because their systems weren't running.
Thats where I think were headed as well, I sold off many shorts the last 3 days because of that warm fuzzy dow 17,000 feeling, with this much volatility there is no doubt in my mind the dow doesn't rally 400-500 points!!!!!
