green +40


A TWO-FER ON THE GUESS MY STOP GAME


out ETFC +.14 been holding a really long time just to get back to green
out CTL -2.08 (last week had a profit and did not take it....now look at it...grrrrr)
out AHGP +.83 ( got burnt  on the spread)
out GE +.18
out  DPL +.31(never mind the sell problem...must cancel all pending orders first before trying to sell on this platform, maybe don't trade on MB Trading or use it for just futures to cover brokers fees )
added TXN
EARNINGS AFTER CLOSE.YOU FORGOT  TO CHECK (got suckered in on an uptick)
added POT
Shorted the YM futures for 5 points
For some reason it just seemed a difficult day.  Java interfered with my platform and would not allow any entries, my other broker won't allow you to have simultaneous orders which almost panicked me thinking they would not allow my sell...but knew I had the position, and I watched it go down and down.  The morning hours I spent talking to a broker of the sell problem and wondering how to delete java and reload it without missing too much trading.  And also, in my state of mass confusion I kept trying to reopen a program causing it to continuously give me pop ups every few seconds.  Dual openings cause the shut down of the program.
Ya, for some reason things just seemed a little difficult today.
The TXN trade...it was  a Gorilla trade and on the Rockstars' list, so I had to buy it.  Then I heard CNBC talk about it reports earnings after the close today and I knew I had failed in researching my buy.

Robot:  7 winners, 10 losers, minus 242.42
I did put up the fish buy and sell triggers.  I am thinking  about running it together with the stochs buy and sell triggers.  or sort of something like that.  Did a YM trade on my own, I had it right and left about 20 points on the table.

Other stuff:  Had to be a plumber at work today, after many hand washings my hands still smell like backed up stuff....I tried to clear the line in the wall and the problem was in the sink...man, I felt dumb.  Then the next drain backed up and once again I tried the floor pipe while it was a surface problem.  But I ....this is work and not other stuff.
My computer I use for the workouts lost its sound.  Yes, today just had a few hiccups.
