Well, no doubts your style is very well polished. In my case I have to leave some money on the table as I'm turning a lot of capital. It would be impossible for me to flip that fast. My average holding period is 3 days and 90% of my capital I turn through options. To do this I need leading signals. My gauges turned RED yesterday afternoon and kept me in a short sentiment till now. I realize that there is a lot of profit opportunities that I could take as the market is still going down but my gauges advise me now to get out so I did. There is no LONG signal though yet.

Cheers.

I understand ... :)

That's the benefit of staying independent.
 
Sheesh - Just got out of the shower, thought I'd leave early pick up some flowers and head off to the fiancee's house early tonight (hour drive) and this is what is see... I left 50 ticks on the table.

:eek:


The cost of love ..... :(
 
Ok now I don't feel so bad after that last bar I would have been stopped anyway, so realistically I only left 20 ticks.

Oh well .... :)


Maestro - Good luck

Hank - Hope it wasn't too bad for you and your stop wasn't too far.
