Down 75 dollars, sucks! It was the fault of a bad futures trade. I had a profit, with my finger on the mouse, and I let it slip away. Then I was mad about letting my profit turn red that I revenge traded into another bad trade. Could've been a good day, should've, and maybe would've, If I just would have put in that stop to protect my profit instead of let it slip away.
Added WMT, sold half of my CELG
Bad start to the week.

Stuff learned from the months
EARNINGS: Never a good idea to hold through earnings...that one bad stock can toast a lot of profits (A LOT)
LAW SUITS: Stay away from these! (remember GS)
ADDING TO POSITIONS: Don't just dump a stock. Do some cost averaging, maybe it will help.
FUTURES TRADING: In March it cost all my profits and then some, so I stopped futures trading. The plan was working. That is until April when the 200 point down day and bad earnings (NTY -8.62) again cost me all my profits (save 21 dollars). Then I started trading futures again to get back to the green. So, really, no point here.........?
