Hi ICN,

Sounds like you have been putting too much time in at work and not enough in this market, now get your priorities in order would ya??

I jumped in DYX monday around noon I think on my lunch hour, got in at 2.00. Then i checked back later in the day and it had ran up to almost 2.50, but dumb, stupid, greedy,dumb,( go ahead, fill in any word you feel is appropriate, any and all will work) i thought, gee i think it will go to 3.00, soooo stupid me did not sell and held it over night hoping for a bounce. well come morning ( after not sleeping so good because of the above violation of my rules) it shot up to 2.48 but i did not have my sell order in because i had to go to a meeting and did not get back to my office in time. so as i was checking it began tanking and before i knew it, i was under water, with mask and snorkel on face. The two guys in my office do not understand why i make faces all day long while in front of my computer! well i refused to sell at a loss so i just checked it every 3 seconds, for the next 3 hours and low and behold it had worked its way back up to 2.25, so i sold, knowing of course as soon as i sold it would go up, and yes of course it did!!

so today i got lucky and will try ( key word) to follow my rules from now on and be smart, not stupid.

I may jump back in DYX tomorrow, under 2.00 and try the torture process all over again.

ps. good job on RDRT!!
