1) I was going to leave my desk
2) I can't put stop loses on .cn holdings, which is frustrating
Told myself full well that there was a better than good chance I'd come home to find I left a lot on the table. If you had asked me 2 weeks ago how I'd feel about making 10% when I could have made 25%-30%, I'd have said "furious". Today's the first time I'm really not mad.
I've finally come around to not chastising myself over this kind of stuff, specially when #1 and #2 are true. I can't leave positions that big unsupervised in something so volatile.
53 cents now, curious to see where it closes. I really hate that no stop loss rule. For sure I let winners run more when I'm allowed that.
