good for you, because I have heard (don't know it for a fact) that 90% of those that do lose, they just lose (has something to do with higher education.)
The old and new contracts still mimic each other for the next day or so, and as the volume keeps dropping you would eventually figure it out. But you're right. Should stop daydreaming and pay attention to details. These last few day however have been boring as hell. Slow. Hard to keep awake.
Absolutely. Everybody is simply waiting around for the shit to hit the fan. Which it will. And then it will be like a fire in a crowded theater. Right now the crowd is waiting for QE3. Which most likely will happen before the election to try and juice this farce a little further up. But come on, everyone knows this is fake and is taking advantage of it while they can. And the heat is on to try and lure the public back into the market while it tops out. I am in cash, or when in a position I keep my finger on the destruct button, ready to get out in a moments notice.
I have this problem on small holidays, or when wall street gets hit with bad weather.....like a couple mondays ago, I thought a nuke went off!
