I think I have decided to just buy one mini and forget about it. Heck, in a couple of years I should have enough to afford a couple of TKs.

I have not done any work yet this evening on the charts, but at this point I still think it has to be a short. I guess I need to lose that thinking and just play the moves. One of the times I play the short side, that will be "the move," but in the meantime I sure am missing out on some nice up-side moves.

I can look at the last couple of days and pick out two or three spots easily I was thinking of getting long, but did not cause I was too worried "the short" was in the making. Maybe that is the problem right now....preconcieved notions. Ah well...this too shall pass.

As I have heard so many times, you never know going in how the trade is going to work out and many times when your head says it is going to be a lousy trade, it turns out to be one of the best. Like Tom and his 45 pointers. He never knows when the trade is put on how it will turn out....but he sure racks up the big ones enough to settle in with a nice book and relax.

Maybe I will splurge and just buy a couple TKs right now....

EDIT - I tell you what....when my mind changes and I think it is time to be long, I will short one....how's that sound? Play the system backwards....:)
