Stop that man. We had a very good day and you'd hate yourself if MSFT, GOOG missed and PCE comes out hot tomorrow morning and the profit you booked evaporated into a loss.Boy Named Sue said:I did the same for 120%. Then watched post market action make me regret it lolProgN said:

Glad I didn't short it like I was considering to do. That would've sucked.El_duderino said:

part of me says short this pop tomorrow, but never know with this market!
p.s. Paris was awesome! I can also say, I'm one of the few to experience hail/ sleet on the Eiffel tower! it was small, but definitely got pelted with small bits of ice - a storm rolled in as we got to the 2nd platform. It was gone as fast as it came in though.

Good evening gang,
Earlier this evening, while talking to a friend, I was reminded of something I did long long ago when I started out that really helped me become a lot better in the market. I probably should've never stopped honestly.
This is advice for new people learning the craft. Get yourself a composition notebook and just jot down a couple of sentences about the market and your victories/failures (and why), stock and price of the trade. Only do this for market days, this isn't a diary. Don't look at it until 1 year after you start. You will amaze yourself by how much you've learned and grown as a trader/investor. You will also laugh at mistakes you made at that time, that you now recognize and avoid.
This will make you better and stronger as a trader.
It's not required, but it is a beneficial tool.
