Manually! When we closed over the 6881, I entered the position. I'm not good at these types of trades, I've booked 10 and I'm ready to close it. Once this m15 candle closes, I will cover the position at BE.
I had an order at 82 with tp at 4920.. missed by 2 pips.. I got another 30 pips on it though... may be stopped out soon..

I personally am not good at the breakout order manually. You and I have talked about this in the past. I always cover too soon because I don't want to get caught with my pants down on a false breakout.

And like that! I've been kicked to the curb!

The mistress though and I are dancing. She took my PO and closed me out for 20 loss quickly, but I jumped back on her ass at 137.20. Come on baby!

If that is 2.4920 you might be holding it for a long while.

It's not right bro! I agree completely! A couple of reports, smoke and mirrors by the US govt. and everyone in America is eating steak for dinner again.

Ok! Remember people, these are the same assholes who didn't see it falling when we broke 14K on the DOW. It took them 1 year before they recognized a problem and now they have the solution overnight? Don't think so, but hey, whatever.

Good to see you.

Isn't it nice that we own Chrysler and we are paying people to buy the cars we are building and now we are paying people OT to build them.

Goverment bails out Auto makers , Now bails out auto dealers .. Creating very small fake positive data.. we need to be in the auto bussiness. Also wonder when the other industries are going to revolt.. This is some of the worste Goverment ideas I think I have ever heard about..

Sounds like dark ages.. Tax the poor to better the nobles.

You know how the US Govt is. Bailout the big guys and fuck the little ones in the process. They've done it in the past and their doing it now. I don't understand how bailing out banks is productive for the US. They saved them from the bottom of hell, now the banks that have paid back the TARP money say FU to loaning you any money. So, what good did it do for the American taxpayer. Oh wait I know, it kept their bank under the same name, how stupid of me not to realize that all these American's were saved from having to buy new checks and find a new branch to do their banking at.

The last Chrysler product I owned was a 1954 DeSoto. You could take a sledgehammer to that thing and you'd be hard pressed to make a dent.

And the worse is coming.
They said that they are going to tax rich folks for Healthcare reform.
This morning news mentioned that middle class will be taxed as well.
Give them a little time to announce that everybody will be screwd - pardon - taxed for this Healthcare reform.
