<Side note, I know a guy who always places his Stop before he enters. That's because one day in November 3 years ago he had a trade on and left to walk his dog, forgetting to place a stop. He trades fairly large, 10 to 100 contracts a clip. Lost a million dollars that afternoon. He was able to get over that. Me, I don't think I could. >

ROFLOL. Thanks for the note on the stops. That is a keeper! I set my browser to be able to find it easily. I want to learn how to look at the smaller to refine my entries as you suggest. That is why I am trying to be like Nemer in the contest. I can't do it. Best to do what I can do for now and get basic rules down and not worry about fine tweeks untill later.

Best Wishes,

Bob
