It's amazing to look back and see how quickly a week flies by.  Here we are at Thursday already, and I feel like I haven't gotten a thing done all week!

Last night I signed up another "personally enrolled" Market Mover Trader.  I am super excited for him and think that he will do a great job.  Its always fun to see the spark in people's eyes when they "get it".  And he gets it.

After staying up too late watching American Idol last night (DVR), I hit the hay a little anxious about this morning's trade.  I had been texting my brother back and forth about the trade, and it made me nervous for some reason.  But I was awakened by a text message from another Market Mover Trader who was concerned because he couldn't connect to his brokerage and was wondering if I could.

I ran to my computer, got it "awakened" too, and everything was working fine.  Whew!

I had plenty of time to brouse the MMTU site and view recaps from yesterday's trades, and get set up for my trade this morning.  It's always nice to not be rushed.

I made my 6:30 trade and won quite quickly.  I got 1.25 points without even thinking about it.  The news was so bad, that I attempted to move my profit target down, but I got filled too quickly.  Regardless, I have this thing about getting greedy and sticking to my rules.  If I determine the profit I want/need from each trade, I generally stick to it 100%.  I don't want to go chasing after more money and end up losing everything.

Take a look at my trade.  And, we'll chat again tomorrow.  :)
