    Definitely. All strategies that use leverage are prone to massive losses. Averaging down is just the quickest way :D That being said, however, there are times when averaging down works. Today is a perfect example. Buy the dips following the Fed and let her fly.....

  6. The thread was put into chit chat because it was simply another "Look how good I am" post with no specifics.

    If the OP would like to begin a journal in the journal section, or post REAL TIME trades in the Trading section, I would be more than happy to leave it where it is.
