13820.....I hear ya. DangerBird.....I did O.K. earlier in the year, made a few shekels, but, over the past 3-4 months, those winnings have been gradually eroded on trades that, otherwise (in 'normal' markets) should not have occured...very frustrating and, in truth, a bit depressing and irritating when one works diligently to establish a trade only to have some "extraneous" event or out-of-the-blue Fed-head suddenly hold a presser which results in a reversal in the market one is trading.....grrr-r-r-r....So, for now, and likely the rest of the summer, I'm on the sidelines, keeping my accounts open but only spectating...(and, yes, wolavka, I DO use stops when I'm unsure..)
