short 2000 fnm @ 28.15
then the shit hit the fan and my charts etc were freezing for like 30 seconds at a time. PANIC attack!!!
buy to cover 2000 FNM @ 31.13
bye bye six thousand, I'll miss you.

If you only held you would be up 1700 today. But then again, you might not have sold your SEED and lost it all to the chinese.

Will start to plan to cover at 6.30 or 6.25 if it hits that tommorrow, but I'll let you know if i cover higher or lower.

Long 400 shares of KLAC @44.58.
Target 51

you know, i don't mind losing on a trade if it was the right call, but you're right peil, if I'd just gritted my teeth for a bit, it was coming back my way. Thats the worst thing about it. Like I said on the other thread, I plan to reduce position size and climb back on the horse .. Good fortune to all (and myself too I hope)

That was going to be my prediction.

Please don't think like that. That is EXACTLY how you get into BIG TROUBLE TRADING. Trading via hope is not a profitable strategy. There are still people hoping CMGI will get back to 200, and TIE back to 80.

The trade is over. You lost money. No big deal. If your method is good you will make it back.

Too many jokers making calls - and then forgetting about the ones that bombed OR after the market tanks, they reply: 'Yes my stop was hit, took a 1c loss only"
