Trade Journal 2/23/10

There were no announcements yesterday, but this morning there was an announcement on Consumer Confidence at 8:00. The numbers came in worse than expected and the market reacted. This announcement typically has pretty good movement, and this one did not disappoint. The market dropped significantly, and I made 2.5 points (25%) in about three minutes. That's $625 on the 5 contracts I was trading. This was my best single trade to date.
