Hi Tim: Re Lesson Learned.

So true. I cant get to my computer enough (at work) and so cant do daytrading yet. I am trying to track just a few stocks and get really really familiar with their action-Coms especially, it isnt as volatile as usrx was but still hops around a bit. (Smaller companies would be better because I 'd like to be able to get 1000 shares at a time or at least 500). For now I'm doing it on paper.
I had a great list of dos and donts for this year-my first year as an active buyer and seller of stocks. I didnt follow my list, Iallowed a 100% gain in August to turn into a 35% gain. Because I didnt hold to my "sell" points. It caused me great emotional pain because I felt stupid and besides I'm generally too emotional anyway! But the aggravation taught me that I better follow my plan or else I'll be sorry! I thought I could learn without making mistakes.
Ha Ha Ha.
