I try not to have emotions at all. With my pension I am totally emotionless. Sat out most of the horror this spring because I felt it coming and with that money I am very conservative. Don't mind getting 5.5% for a month or 2. That account is up 13% for the year.

My trading account suffered horrific loss's this spring because I was so intent on being a player at all times. After margin calls and worthless calls expiring I had to look myself in the mirror and say wake up dummy. Now if I don't feel like playing, I don't. Expensive lesson for me to learn:)

By the way if you care, I feel like playing now and am.

Jeff

PS I think you made some great calls and should be well on your way by this time tomorrow!

Thanks for illustrating your day. I was thinking of all you folks while the market ran . . . down and up.

I left to vote (early) at 2pm. It was amazing to see what my charts looked like when I returned at 4:30. My friends, this is utter chaos. My hat is off to those here who had the market smarts to grab some of that 2-4 market action. Here's to a monster short covering rally for you tomorrow!
