    Wow. Any reason you're holding?

    For a guy who takes a lot of single digit gains a 50 point and growing loss is unusual.

    Certainly not in your favor today.

    rcj; I'm doing OK

    I've been following your action for while and have been very impressed. I'm not a scalper so I watched with some interest as you take 4 or 5 points out of the market with each trade. Lots of times thats my slippage when I go in with market orders.

    I was just surprised to see a potential 50 point loss, Not your style at all.

    Looks like the market is retreating a bit. Hope you do OK with this one. Best of luck

    I know ; I got lucky, I had just closed out a trade when it went down. Thats twice in the last little while. I may have to consider something other than YM
