    Warning to all NOOBS! Trading is not easy....

    REDINK, to answer your question. It was a confluence of bad judgement and boredom as the middle of the day hit. I went long SPY to try to get a .10 cent scalp from it and all hell broke loose. The purpose of me posting it today was only to show the newer traders that trading was not as...
