Thanks for the update Tom- I was going to bail this morning and decided to just see what tomorrows market looks like.. I really didnt expect the market to do what it did today, so that was a pleasant surprise.. CCMP looks like alot of the 'play' has been squeezed out of it and the chart is really starting to look like crap.. Looks like the never ending learning game just keeps on going for me.. CCMP was a classic case of my emotions getting the best of me, and until I get that under control I wont ever achieve the level of performance that I need to make all of this effort worth it.. It also rehashed memories of 'why not to play what everyone else is playing'... I hope to one day be part of a tight small group that trades with each other.. I know alot of people think im nuts when I say that a simple post on a message thread can put a stock in play but what was funny is a few days ago, JB made a comment about 'do I really believe this to be true?' the answer is yes.. Unless im lying (and that IS a distinct possibility,) I had a friend who was directly involved with very large monies and did in fact trade quite a bit with what was said on this and other threads.. I fail to see why this seems so far fetched to people.. Im still short CCMP, and will be happy to cover at 66 or 58, whichever comes first.. I still believe the semis are going to drop like a rock going forward and CCMP is nothing but hot air with or withought the warning.. Probably a good thing they didnt warn- that would have probably sent it well over $80 !
