Holding on too tight.

Hey Cal...Hey Nicky. Market psychology is the final frontier in futures trading. Here I am, a "seasoned" trader, yet,...(tell me if you can relate)...Why is it after a couple huge moves which produce awesome profits, we can get so tight with our trading?...At least I do. Yesterday's ojn7 erect stick in the mud formation is rarely ever a bullish signal; yet, fatigue set in and I bailed. Left a couple trailing puts in HGU and am out of SN. IT's been a couple of great months. What I need is a clone to take over for a few days!

I'm sure as heck not going to bottom pick from here. Cal, I know you use solid stops and am not a tick watcher. Nicky...you're going balls out (or some other reference:-) Way to go! Maybe I'll just preset a couple stop orders tomorrow and head to the beach for a little R and R.

Then again...we have the issue of laptops! ERRRRRRRhhh
