for my 3rd target @ 61.00 but yesterdays fishing was still fresh in my mind so my desire for patience didn't get a second thought. Patience got a second thought yesterday and almost cost me a deposit. The fish had the psych advantage. I can't complain since I did make an 85 cent deposit. I can be happy with that since I only had risk exposure for maybe 10 minutes for an 85 cent gain.

I did get the itch to reset my risk exposure with a fresh long @ 60.50. Not sure how smart that is as I wait for the first 60 min close to make a choice of hold or punt. I have a punt order working @ 60.90 but getting the urge to drop it 5 cents, I can be happy with an additional 30-35 cents added to current deposits and I just talked myself out of what little bravery conviction I had left by cutting it loose @ 60.80. A $1.10 fishing deposit for the day is very satisfactory. I may need that since I'm patiently waiting for a 167.00 target on a long March FC, I've been long that cash cow since 153.10 from 2 weeks ago. I was targeting 165.00 until yesterday opened the door fro the next target. I wasn't brave enough to continue carrying a straight long so I spread a short April @ 166.20 just in case 167.00 fails to get the kiss I'm expecting. Now I have to deal with the greedy thought that the short April has a likely $10 plus selloff coming soon and I may be able to ride it back down.

There's a faint smell of trouble, I should stick to fishing the hogs. I got sidetracked with several phone calls since I started this post and know I see I punted to soon. The last target on my menu for today was 61.12 and for some reason even though I have a friendly bias 3-4 weeks from now, I'm getting this feeling that yesterdays low at 58.07 will get a retest before the week is over. Maybe just one of my many hallucinations. I will be scouting the south end for a place to throw my lines.
