    I think i would loose all of my money to commissions in a fast sloping linear fashion. :)

    Moving on to next week MTN looks like a nice earnings play. If you want to see a textbook definition of a downtrend check its chart out.

    Goin' Long!!

    Well it was a horrible start to this journal this week. Instead of loosing money (i.e. the plan) my closed positions for the week netted me +13,523.48 (not the plan!). I feel ashamed, but i stuck to the rules and whatever will be will be. Maybe next week will be better after all it was only 3 days.


    Current balance: 263523.48
    Week P/L: +13523.48
    Total P/L: +13523.48

    :confused:
