they are screwing with everybody..... they got me this week. i had pair of beautiful trades on ILA and they took most of it back by wiping out my QQQ puts. what really annoys me is that friday morning i was in the green but instead of taking a profit - any profit - on an expiry Friday i stayed with what the chart told me. ok, so you trade the plan, sometimes it goes bad, it happens. where i screwed myself was in not recognizing soon enough that the chart was broken and i needed to get the h-ll out of the way. ah well, live and learn, if i hadn't been feeling so flush from the ILA trades maybe i would have respected my stops a little better and i wouldn't be boring everyone with my weekend whining. -g- the question for monday AM is do i play the sell signal i got on the QQQs right at EOD friday. i'm guessing i probably will...
