Thanks for the offer, Tim, and All, but I'm OK. I should have kept away from that trade but I had been reading about non-farm on Sudden Dearh's thread all morning and, even then, forgot all about it when I saw an entry that I liked! If I had been going to work I would have been stopped on a target or stoploss, for sure. As it was, it was a roller-coaster that left Battersea Park in the cold!
I recommend it---if the account is comfortably padded to take the bumps and it only lasts a couple of minutes--but it seems much longer than that.
I mentioned that trade to illustrate a point on stops but found that what I had done was received with horror from the experienced among you.
"Split has, finally, lost it"!!! Not true! :clap:
Newcomers, though, try not to forget when non-farms is due.
