ST - Trading Jacob, I misplayed my short today. I was overly cautious fearing a rapid return to the high $30's before moving back down. I tried to play it super safe setting break-even stop-losses when I was in the green on paper, only to watch them hit and missing out on about $2 grand in gains for the day. I could have jumped back in and locked-in a larger win, but she turned around sooner than I thought. Well, ya can't win 'em all, and it's always OK to leave the table with what ya started with. Tomorrow's another day. AdvocateDevil
