    Spain's unemployment rate soars to 17 pct

    It happened to me...BBOOOOO

    one thing i learned is never trade with margin. If your correct you don't need margin if your wrong you wipe out your account. Learn to live to trade another day. Take small losses. Go for singles, not doubles or triples or homeruns. 1 baby step at a time, and never, never trade with margin.

    Pivots are a tool and only as good as the user with the tool. you must have market experience with pivots, i would say at least 3 months, and a great risk management plan. Rule #1 always know where you would get out if your wrong. Rule #2 ReRead rule #1.
