Re: Straddles for Tue, Jan 31

It was good I got stopped out, as it turns out. The price kept going down. Seems stable now but I don't know why. Some cheaper p.p. shares came out in the market. I hate when they do that. I suspect the price may drop again tommorrow morning, so I didn't buy everything back, only 1000. When I see what is going on, then I will decide.....

However I did stub my toe yesterday. Fortunatley only on 1000 shares. I hopped around for awhile, mad at myself cause I shoulda known better.

I am looking around to find a forex home here in Canada.

Sometimes breaking even can be good day in itself.

also. It just seems like a blah sort of day. So I will go exercise.


Good luck, hope it comes out of the red for ya.>>

Thanks John. Just closed at breakeven..the FOMC decision brought the
eur back down nicely. Looks like I left a few $hundred on the plate.

Glad to see you got back on your horse after being thrown. Just make
sure you board him on the port side from now on :-)
