Wow and how!! and they ripen all at once! That trade with the "misinformation" about the earnings took l of my cat lives not alone added gray hairs.....and I had just turned 50 that day too!!

Advice to anyone and I don't usually give advice. THINK more than TWICE about trading on a "special" day in your life or the ones you love. I have traded on two days I totally regret and it was not worth it. I traded on my 50th birthday thinking I would do well. Instead all hell broke loose and had one of the worst goof up bat blows days I had had in so long I couldn't remember.....got hit by fluke bus after bus! And the JPNR bus looked like a bus cause briefing reported they didn't do that well and corrected that the next day but I had to helplessly watch ECN's with it tanking after hours until the next day. And that was just ONE goof ball thing.

And another time I traded poorly on my son's high school graduation thinking cause I felt good on both these occasions like I had a trading flu shot or something and couldn't catch some bizarre strain of pain because of it...WRONG!! Both trading days totally tampered with and colored my mood and I "missed" both days rather shell shocked in my own way. Stupid idea! And I don't use the word stupid often!

So please learn from my mistakes!! It can't be worth it just in case things go awry! Remember we have to learn from the mistakes of others cause we can't make them all ourselves....

side dish, hey, Mr. Big, I think you were the one, once I thought I heard you say something about brokers and your trading? I have been lately in positiions to get in a trade and I swear the brokers are putting themselves in first (not because of me but because I just happen to have found a run) and I wind up getting a for s**t fill with "odd" timing and get burned. It there a name for this? Like a front running? Does this exist or am I imagining things?

Thanks.

And thanks dear 2MAR$.....you are sweet and kind.
