AMAT ST trading remains profitable, but I continue to fall
short of stats from previous years. A $16K hit in January
and an $8K hit last month didn't help. I should probably
back off from pressing into the larger plays and stick
closer to the basic guidelines that have worked well in the
past (like taking more quick hits when she turns against
me). It's just that I like to try new things in order keep
it interesting and fun! Unfortunately, mixing it up isn't
increasing the gains, so there's the rub!
