red -110

1 YM trade for 12 points.  It took me this long to restore my backup computer, then I had time to make a trade.  Bought at the first line...quickly had 16 points (second line) and while I was deciding to place either a 10 or 5  point trailing stop on my short....it all reversed and I was down over 25 points.  And for the next 9 minutes I had to decide how much loss would be too much.  9 minutes are a long time when the dollars are racking up.  Then it broke and my short was profitable again.  I did not hesitate as long this time (third lined) and went with a 5 point trail.
     Moving the trading room was not as easy as I thought, and I still have one more desk to move along with longer cables, primary internet in the same room instead of the cord just hanging through the basement.  And the usual personal touches that make it more than just normal.

Other stuff:  It's funny how I can't wait till it warms up and at the same time I take pictures of the latest snowfall just to keep it alive.  My dad loaned me the movie Avatar to watch, It was fun,  cause, you know the fantasy calls list is defunct which really cuts into the seeing a movie stuff.  I hate it when they forget me.
