Iso, >> Looks like, if you're not there already, you're well on your way to being one of the best ST traders here. <<

Ha! I'm still making too many mistakes to claim any fame. Although my port is near an alltime high, mistakes have caused me from "incredible" gains.

I should have sold INSP on the news in after-hours while I was up 33% for a two day hold. Instead, I got greedy and thought the open would drive it higher, it didn't.

I bought RFMD two days ago and it was up nicely yesterday. I should have sold and didn't. I made the right move on SSTI and NANO yesterday. I can buy them back cheaper.

I'm not whining about my mistakes, I expect to make more of them. The key for me is to maintain what works, and learn from what doesn't.
