COMS got me to take a break from day trading. I had more trouble with Ameritrade and quote service being down at crucial times last week. I also missed the high volume at $24 at the bottom and that stop out at $26 1/4 when I was looking for $27 1/2 (which it did) really made me want to break something by that point. While I had some really good trades on COMS, the drop past $30 and the short at $24 were more severe. The short at $27 1/2 down to $26 was the best and would have been better--if quote.com hadn't exploded at 15:00. Post COMS I decided to do a position trade on GTW instead. GTW held up well today with the market onslaught. I still expect GTW to go down to $47, but I'm holding as long as the 12 DMA holds out, as I think GTW will return to high 50s after techs bottom out.
