Slider,
Like WJC might say, I feel your pain; unlike he, I am quite sincere. Lessons learned in the market are invaluable, humility is also good, as long as it doesn't make one gun shy. I lost more money in the form of potential profits by being chicken to pull the trigger, than lost taking some big hits this year. Yet I have also avoided even worse disasters through the experience. All part of the learning curve, though at this school of ours, they use the cat o'nine<G>.
I find that now finally, I no longer flinch, either at the post or behind the trigger, so I suppose there is potential from these bloody lessons.
You've got class, slider

Best of luck,

Roebear
