  3. My account dipped to - 22K at its lowest and I was ready to puke. Believe it or not I had some orders on the DOM that I forgot to cancel and when I woke up I was in for 12 contracts. Down around 19K, I was not happy to say the least. I had the feeling the market would dip because of the Senate refusal to fork over $$$$ to the big three. What I did not know was that I had some orders triggered. I almost puked when I opened my account. Brought back memories of olden days.


    There is nothing like rookie mistakes. However If I have to make them it would be nice to do it with less cars and certainly smaller negative numbers.

    I almost had a h. attack!

  5. Saxon, very sorry to hear about the +18.5K you made. :(

    -9.00 for me. Would have been a positive day, but I accidently went long SPY instead of short on the first test of yesterday's low.

    Next week is a better week. :cool:
