Re: I really missed the guess

for how BIG those fish were gonna be today. I knew the drop back to 76.00 was coming but a poor timing guess on my part. Can't expect to catch all of the BIG ONES, I made the desired deposit and that's all that matters. Now I just wait for another fishing hole to open up.

Yesterday I did take one of my cattle /hog spreads to the bank. Not the targeted $20 profit objective, I will continue to dream of riding one to its full potential. The $10 spread profit is where I usually lose my patience or get stricken with the anxiety of giving it all back. The first few years I traded the June/June spread I was happy to walk away with 3-4 dollars profit but back then I spent so much time in the woodshed, a $3 profit gave me a fresh new emotional state of mind. Now I get a bit disgusted with my lack of patience in accepting a $10 profit. There's always that survival voice telling me, "the market can take away as fast or faster than it gives". I guess I'm not rich enough to ignore that voice, nor do I have any desire to be that rich. It would take all of the fun and challenge out of this game.
