Latest trade:  Sell/Short (11/2/10)

Commentary
Ok, first the good.  The long trade from Oct 26 turned out to be positive after spending several days in the red.  I got the big up day that I wanted... But now the bad.  I was a tad bit discouraged to see the ES take out 1193 after the close.  Next stop could be 1205+.  Tomorrow should be volatile, especially starting at 2pm.  Enjoy the action! Good luck and good evening. -JTrader
