Without day trading powers and the way the market is bouncing around now a  days, it is difficult to take any  positions.

The only way to trade in this market now is to wait till just before close on a down day and hope for a bounce the next day.

OTHER STUFF: (it's been a long time)
 ...... But I do know this, they didn't put any chocolate chips in my chocolate chip ice cream....you would think a sick person wouldn't have to drive out to the store twice just to get chips in his chocolate chip ice cream....Colorado legalizes marijuana and the stoners just spaced out the chips in my ice cream.

with the market being closed and some bad luck at a store that took all my time...that choice of whether of not to trade for a week, protecting my profits was pretty much made for me.

I'm green for the month....yeeeeee hawwwwww



Dow down 10

Zero

no trades today

With only 4 trading days left in the month, and because I'm already all cash.  Profit protection is coming in.  I'm not sure if I will risk my profit for the month and put on a trade in the next 4 days.

Whenever there is a big down day the plan is to buy at the close for the bounce...but profit protection to end the month in the green usually overrules that plan.
