I was tied up with other matters at the time, did not even realize what was going on till I saw bells and whistles going off....

I had to check and see if you held that last mini from this morning and was sorry to see you did not. It likely would have been stopped before the move anyway, so I guess it was better you dumped it.

Ended up down 1/2 point today. When I knock the pattern down I do real well. When I go in less than confident about the flow, the results show it. I quit for the day once the news was out. No sense being stupid.

I think I am going to be up and running in a couple weeks. I am 99% sure I am switching to Reifler at this point. I like the order entry system and at $9.98 a round, you can hardly beat it. Also, the phone number I have is the order desk...I called about 20 minutes after the rate hike and they picked up on the second ring. Of course, my chat with the guy was cut short, but that is fine, they answered promptly. Hal called them a couple times now and it was his experience as well...quick to answer. Somehow I don't think ZAP holds much over them.

I am ready to rock this house.

I assume you will be around more now, I mean once my account is set up that is, to tell me what to do? Right? I need all the backup I can get! :)

Nasty piece of work today! These Fed moves really must be factored into the risk part of the equation. Why didn't they just lower rates at the last FOMC meeting instead of hauling out a big surprise? I'm glad I decided to finish my income tax today instead of trading :)
