I have not laughed this hard in weeks. Keep up the trading and posting :-)

Yes. Treat each day independently, for that matter treat each moment independently. But remember, have a play of what you think the market may do based on previous days action and analysis. But clearly one must reevaluate when it doesn't. It sounds like a contradiction but it's...
