<why are you so predisposed from trading this afternoon > I track my trades. Friday is my worst day. Morning is the best trade for me, so Friday afternoon I avoid if at all possible. I'm an engineer by training. Things that repeat themselves have a weight on my personality. I tend not to trade Fridays, definitely not Friday late, never Expiration Friday late. Just a rule that I have. I just don't do it. I get lucky one month, then go into the poor house the next. I just found that life is easier losing a few bucks on the golf course on Friday than trading. For whatever reason, Friday afternoon <as a rule> kicks my butt and I am not going to fight it.
