since Dec 29th, for a 3.50-3.70 backfill on the Feb cattle contract to add to my long positions for the next step higher in the cattle Bull Market in progress. Actually, I started on Dec 30th spreading short April @ 162.40 against my long Feb so I could benefit from the correction I was expecting.

I was getting very nervous at the beginning of the week that, with thoughts that I might not get my final $1 drop for my add on buy orders for Feb @ 155.50-155.70. I forced myself to be patient for my cycle day on the 19th. Sometimes patience is harder to acquire than courage. I also banked profits on the short April @ 158.95-159.15. I had a lot of buy orders filled for multiple clients that I had to force patience for them also. Now, I just need this herd of cattle to start climbing the mountain again this week.
