Power outtage (why today? why not yesterday???)
Then my laptop died on me shortly after I got out.
There was nothing I could other than watch and bitch on my phone.
As Rodney Dangerfield said, I get no respect.

I think I need to get one of these. Does anyone use a smart panel?

Just get a UPS man. $200+ would get you a nice one, enough to run your laptop & modem for a while

Already a overkill: https://www.newegg.com/apc-smc1500c-nema-5-15r/p/N82E16842301597?&quicklink=true

or any of these (just get a nice brand)

That doesn't make sense . What supposedly seasoned day trader doesn't have their trading platform on there phone ? Hell i make 1/2 my trades off my phone so i'm not stuck to the monitor .But then again Flips the biggest junky on the planet . I bet he's got an iv tube in his vein to keep him awake 22 hrs a day. Lol. You could have pulled the platform up and watched it just like your laptop . No excuses in this game .

Great call Schizo, respect.

Care to explain why you felt down was more likely than up at that point?
All I could see was a range after a move up, no way for me to tell which side was more likely.

Of course I understand if you 'd prefer not to answer that in detail but I hope you agree you can't blame me for trying

Seriously? I need to draw lines and that's too inconvenient on the phone. Thanks for the attention though.

Bought 2nd MES @ 888
Let's see

Maybe it's the end of the world
875 maybe. If we go lower.
OMG

Just bought the f*cking top. What a moron.
That's what happens when you miss the forest for the tree.

I dunno man, it just felt bearish. First, we sold off at the open and then chopped around at the bottom not making much progress. My trading philosophy has always been "what doesn't go up must come down" and vice versa. Hope that helps.

Your welcome . I was like you with stocks once upon a time trading up 3000 times a day and 1 million shares a day . I had 8 monitors .The adrenaline dripped threw me . 4 monitors on vacation . Gave up the drug . Much happier trading 3-4 times a day with setups.
