Back on track after yesterday's loss. Day 11. In theory, I could play it safe for the last 4 days from here.

Good evening, Ma'am! :) Sorry about that. Well, to simplify even further, I'd say the biggest mistake was to let the trade go from a profit to a loss.

Thank you for that lucid explanation. I...

The above could seem a bit confusing as I mentioned LeeLoo and Apex simultaneously, but I did so because they have the exact same business model. It seems like they may even be run by the same people.

Good comment, MarketMage.

So, any news here since last time I checked in? Did anyone cash out?

MR79 was with LeeLoo and phantomtrader with OneUp, I think.
