Thanks, like I said though, I won't start futures until I retire or get on a long term night shift. Just taking a week back at work on day shift makes me rusty and it takes me 3 days to get back in sync. When I take a long leave, I don't even try to trade for the first week as I often lose otherwise. This week was unexpected time off as I got put on nights on short notice so I am rushing trying to force trades because I know I only have 4 days to do so. Today just wiped out all my gains from a week of leave 2 weeks ago and it could get worse or better depending on what happens by Friday's close. I really only wanted to play this intra day but will see what tomorrow brings and what pain level I am at. If I am too far gone to be saved, I will hold half and pray a lot for bad numbers Friday AM on the employment report. if I can get close to even, I will bail and trade my way out or sit it out as opportunities either show or don't. I was afraid I was going to get a double buy signal on my EOD charts but I plugged inthe numbers and I didn't so that gives me some relief. We still could just be forming a H&S on the hourly and tank Friday and Monday. Thanks again for the links. Good Luck, Lee
