What's your criteria for locking in gains?

As of the open you had about 10 pts of profit in your long on the financials.

hey jimmy,

yeah, i look to stay in as long as possible once i have a profit in the DJIA system trades--even if this means giving up lots in an attempt to catch the big waves. i have been experimenting with Xtrader lately using it to capture 2-10 points intraday.

closed out the dollar longs at a loss today. holding profitable DJIA long into friday morning, trailing with wide stops to lock in some profit should it reverse. climbing slowly and cautiously out of the hole......

best,

You may see a dip into lunchtime, but I wouldn't get too greedy. Trend remains UP!
