{quote} Ha, ha. Yeah I sometimes fantasize being accidentally short 100 lots, then break out in a cold sweat when it stops out.

By contrast dial back to yesterday, I was bound and determined to short the JY all afternoon which resulted in the loss of more then a couple pips. I think they're called trains.
I was pretty sure I could stop it with my forehead.

{quote} how are you locking profit?
........ I usually but not always, I never do anything always, take off 50%, if they get to +5, set to BE and then go to trailers if they cooperate.
