<Dis market is scary ta me right now and I can't quite put my finger on exactly why. >

See the big key in the right bottom corner of your keyboard that says Enter? Put your finger there. Press. Now wasn't that easy? Its Vegas and a video poker machine all rolled into one. THAT IS the "scary" problem.

And don't forget, the house declared Jacks and 2's are wild except on Wednesdays when the broker pimps changed it to 3's and 9's in the middle of the game.

<<$7,910 in gross profits>>

we have 250 trading days, so you will make 50*8K=400K profit this year, and you are farking complaining
unless you are playing with a billion dollar of capital, then your return sucks, hee hee hee

AD, pease keep in mind the most telling statement of my post: 'And that is *exactly* why I am watching from the sidelines (yet again) while you continue to lock in wins and accumulate good sized profits each day.' I am actually applauding you for knowing that getting the sweet spot on a trade often leaves the ends of the roast on the table but you get the beefiest part. jmo, but I like your idea of building up an 'insurance policy' reserve more before even contemplating larger plays.

Also, I found that my large plays left me with much higher transaction fees and, far worse, a MUCH quicker trigger finger leaving a whole lot on the table. I would get scraps, then go on tilt to get the whole hog I felt was deserved. ...okay too many meat allusions for one email. Stay the course, you seem to have found your ideal meat slicer thickness.
