SPY and ES systems - ES short would have stopped out

    I commented about setting stop loss at least at entry for that 1/2 open stoch short - obviously that would have been hit this morning.

    you can see why I have been talking about stopping that system out lately, and then someone asked me the other day why would I do that LOL

That was why I commented my preference for closing it or setting a stop, anyway market is opening in a min
