Quote from zxd:

I got out of a trade and made money, good right?

Not at all, I broke rules, I didn't have proper stop losses, and because of this, I view it as a losing trade, I should be happy but I'm actually quite frustrated.

You had a winning trade, but it was a bad trade, right?

Learn from it and move on.

An astute trader once told me that a trading plan is like a soul to a trader. Without it, you're only prostituting. The overall point he drove home was that it's better to lose money in a controlled manner than to make money carelessly.
 
V, your broker just called me. He's trying to get in touch with you. Your earlier order to close your long @.40 didn't go through. He's wondering what you want to do.................................................. :p

Tell the SOB, he's fired. :D
 
Man, I was hoping for so much more than that on the break... looking for Y-high at 97.50.. went long on break at .94 and closed at .08 -- it may try again though and I will look to re-enter.
