When a guy is blowing his account to shreds and he asks for advice I doubt he is being sarcastic buddy...
Oh, boy, Barbara, most of your posts are just hilarious. I'd say down another 20k, and are you his mom or something?
Weekly Update for week 23/50 ended 06/20/2009 A better week. Down 2K (1%). At least the second derivative is positive. Was gun-shy for much of the week, concentrating on taking my automated alerts. That was essentially break-even with the tiny size being committed. Will continue development on the automated end.

Your sense of perception must be awful. And no, I am not blowing my account to shreds, neither do I need your advice.
Dude, make a Live Call, post a Blotter, hell do something constructive, but stop trashing Neke's thread ... jealousy must suck!
And as for you bwolinsky ... bro, you're paper-trading a jack hershey ATS as your claim to fame in these parts hereabout. When you're putting the reall dollars on the line and feeling the joy of success or the burn of one loss after another, then you can advise neke. But until then ... he's operating on another level from where you're standing. You should have respect when looking up to him.
could the birth of your baby have affected some of your trade decisions? just an idea... best of luck!
