I just get nervous easy. Personal scars I suppose. Take right now....this new software locked up as I was typing the above sentence. At 4, EST, I had one machine on SPX and the other on SP8Z.....SP8Z stopped...????? It turns out, the data I ported into this new software may have to be scrapped. The software is set for the Futures to close at 4, not 4:15. When I tried to adjust the Close it would not accept it. Now, this makes me nervous----I have a trade on and one of my machines is good for squat. I had to blow out of the trade at 69 even. I still am trying to fix the blessed thing. I have not had a good day trading since I installed this; the old software finally bit the dust and I'm stuck. I think I need pills or something. Your buddy lost perhaps 35 points or more, I guess. Unexpected news can really tear one up in this business, that's too bad. There but for the Grace of God go you or I.
