And to the guy that said it's smart to have things trend in the same direction... it's not. You have less return per unit of risk, this is a basic diversification principle.

Thanks bro, I appreciate it. Like I said the $60k cash I lost were a fraction of my cash reserve so I'm doing very well... Thank GOD. Still it sucks to look at some balances in my account and seeing it without the $60K I lost. Please don't get me wrong, some actually make day trading work in the favor far better than longer term; however, there is always, always, always that risk where one might get blindsided. In this game, one has to be ready to pack a great deal of $$ as well as lose a great deal of $$ without having any urge to jump off a building LOL.

The safe & disciplined road with stocks is far better than the erractic, high risk way over the long run.
