Reply With QuoteFutures are up!A few folks are headed for the exits, I may do the same; hopefully we see some good strength today. Clawed my way up to 9% on the AT, trying to make fewer bonehead moves!

Market futures were up big yesterday on President Trump's announcement on delaying China tariffs... big gap up this morning.

Re: Whipsaw's Account Talk
Been thinking the same thing as well. With this trade, I have managed to erase the boneheaded move I made in early May and am once again above 2%. As I have stated many times on this forum, August and September have never been kind to me, so taking my gains and heading back to the lily pad is a no-brainer.Originally Posted by Whipsaw

Re: Whipsaw's Account Talk
Yeah, I keep forgetting you had a pretty rough year in 2018, and that dive we took last December sucked some decent gains from a lot of folks. But you are doing great this year and I have every confidence your PIP will soon be positive.
I still have some work to do.

Re: Whipsaw's Account Talk
Man! Even though getting out on a down day last week, still positive for the month. There are some big negative numbers accumulating on the AT. Cooling my heels this week, lets see come what may for September.

Re: Whipsaw's Account Talk
I missed an entry the other day because some IT support guy called me at 7 min till noon and started asking me questions. I'm still annoyed.
