Worst Trade of the Year $CYBR
At this point I am not sure why, but I felt paralysis. I couldn't do anything but stare and do nothing. Haven't felt like that in a trade, winner or loser, in years. I guess, sometimes, I need a kick in the teeth to get me back where I should be. I know nothing. Anything is possible. This is game of odds and probabilities. (For the record, hit a hot key 3x)
I can only assume I will be stopped out tomorrow. At least I didn't move my stop right!?
