    I just added it up and I ended with a net $63 loss. I held on to TACT too long, thinking it and the market as a whole were getting ready to rally strong. I threw out the GTC stop and took a much larger loss than I should have. ( http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=2038680&highlight=tact#post2038680 )

    A net $63 loss. Crap. It's like losing a football game by 1 point after the opposing team kicks a field goal in the last 3 seconds of the game.
     
  2. The foreplay was great but the climax was bad. It happens. :cool:
     
  3. Best two years of my 30 years of trading. I closed all long positions and went short builders and financials in spring 07.
    I own 1400 units and I am adding more.
