  1. I made fun of you because I didn't know if you were joking with us or not. Now that I see you did indeed take a big loss, my sympathies.

  3. Almost had an urge to repeat my Christmas disaster. Went back to this thread and stopped myself from deja vu. Lesson well learned.

  5. Early November was hairy and I got clipped a bit. Sandy did not help matters as I as got distracted a little bit ( I reside in NY) and there was too much drama around to make concentration and execution of trades feasable. Also, I lost my internet connection for about a week and traded a couple of times from my local McDonalds and a then after realizing that there are more pleasant places to do so - from a book store. This was not a good idea. I should have volunteered instead of hackig away at my laptop.

    As of right now, I am itching to short the ES at around 1420 and drop another 5 contracts at 1425 - 30 range. I am afraid that all that end of the year window dressing will make things look rosy and big money will keep the market climbing. JAnuary however should bring us down a bit perhaps 1400 short term perhaps more. Who knows. As for now I am going for small profits (2 points - i dump half and the rest I let it ride, usually once the second half reaches 5 points I dump all but 1 contract and I let go till eod).
    Let's hope that this year I will stay the course and not de rail myself.
