It'll be interesting to watch today--many people had bought puts, and so I don't think the market will retrace too much, or lots of put buyers gonna make too much dough!

poet...sometimes the prudent "feminine" side has better returns then the macho "masculine" mentality.....

anxiety clouds logic.....

winning is relative in magnitude....losing ok...capital preservation utmost importance.

as long as you profit more then you lose on your trades....and sometimes you get "lucky" (yes tis pure luck), and get a profit beyond your wildest expectations....but such returns should humble you, not feed the "john wayne ego" that has been born in the great bull market....

lest you be slaughtered like the pascal lamb(more seasonal comment)....
