  1. Can I suggest you learn how to express yourself, keeping stuff bottled up is no good, come on, let it out. :D

    Time to retry, the new rules are in effect from today, I think. Or you could just sign up for their sim trade practice account and waste less money...

  3. You are 100% correct. I will do another after reading this. But I want to be clear about a couple of things.

    1) I wasn't blaming anyone but myself

    2) I trade my own money and don't do this. I never move my stops with my own account. I need to figure out why I'm doing it in the combine though, that it true. I think with 2 days left and the goal being virtually unattainable I just said screw it. And I think that's actually a function of it NOT being my money.

  5. Thx, but I'm not feeling terribly smart at the moment.

  6. This is what I've been trying to say unsuccessfully. Well put.

  7. Italian blood doesn't allow for things to get bottled up. Luckily after its out I'm over it just as quickly. But a couple of well placed f-bombs feels good now and then... :)

  8. Great day because I wasn't worried about breaking combine rules since I blew out yesterday.

    I believe the new rules will be much more beneficial. I will pass this combine if it's the last thing I do!
