OT - Gotta laugh at myself for this mornin'... covered my overnight AMAT play near the open seconds before she dropped like a rock! RtS, ya timed your exit brilliantly! As for me, I booked an -$880 hit that might have been a +$1600 gain a few minutes later or a +$2000 gain a few hours later! I even noted in my exit post that AMAT wasn't lookin' great and that I should play it out, but I let my recent experience of trappin' myself into a nightmare play scare me into early submission. Oh, it's so easy peekin' in that rear view mirrow. FWIW, I guess the lesson the market reminded me about again today was that while it's important to reflect on past blunders, I gotta be careful not to overcompensate and should simply stick to what works.
