I *can* set stops (at least I've been told I can)

but

with the three computers running in my office here, I have loaded a screen with an order to get me out .... ie, buy to cover, sell to close .... loaded and ready to submit with the push of the send key .

I move the figure every few moments (notice, that's NOT minutes....ggg) all the time that my position is open ....
and I have the broker on speed dial and all the info in writing in front of me on a tablet .....so if the ISP, the net, or computers go down ....... I GET OUT THEN >>>> no staying with anything I can't see what's happening ALL the time.

and I have given instructions to my wife (of 37yrs next month) that if she comes home and finds my body slumped over the keyboard or on the floor ......
she is to

1) call the broker and close all positions
2) call the priest
3) call 911

For example, I got out of the last scalp that I posted to Don ..in at 1362 ... and only moved the stop on my screen 15 times in 10 minutes .....out at 1367.....and left a tad on the table AGAIN ... gggg
but I made another tad bit of money on it .....

today the spoos have been easier than the beans ..... gggggg

Later
