I didn't check my watch lists enough during trading today so I missed SAP and a few other moves. But I am working on keeping my focus, too. Can't have the best of both worlds.

Starting tomorrow I will see how the portfolio does with no tending except a few stop orders for four days. I don't think I have left it that long since I was in the hospital for a week last September. That was during the mini-crash so I couldn't sell at the bottom. But I missed some good shorting.

E*Trade's IPO Center service is like getting Rolling Stones tickets. PER and MMPT were announced (with no warning) at 3:15PM PST; PER closed for buys at 5:15 and MMPT was closed by 7:15.

Too bad I was wasting my time with my family when I could have been logged on waiting eagerly for my two-second window of opportunity to get in on these deals.

E*Trade must be getting at least 300 or 400 shares altogether to divide among their clients.

Sheeesh.
