I sold every stock I own this afternoon approx. 1/2 hr. before we hit dead bottom.

I'm not very happy about it.

I was away from my PC all day and had to have my wife relay the stock info to me over the phone.
I had to give her instructions on how to sell every single stock until I was finally safe and out of this screwed up market. This process took me over 30-45 minutes and some stocks dropped 5%-10% by the time we were finished.

I tried to have her relay the CNBC news to me.
I panic filled my f*ckin head as my portfolio hit new lows for the year. Today was another 25% loss.

I rushed through the remaining work I had left and drove sped home. Each time I called in for stock quotes they continued to shoot higher and higher.

I just got home and tried to execute some buys and my computer crashed. Finally it reboots and I manage to buy RNWK, GMST, and BVSN with the small amount left in two accounts.
Now 2 out of 3 are down from where I bought them.

I don't think I want to play this game anymore.

I've been beaten.
Actually, I've had my @ss kicked!

It's going to take me a long time to get back to the point I was just a few weeks ago.

I'm pissed!

Forgive me for blowing off steam.
I hate days like this.
I knew I should have just held on...

All my hard work of DD and searching for great stocks, thrown out the window...

What a waste of time.
