Hi Gang, I did a truly stupid thing on Sunday evening. I was attempting to manage the trust account I'm the trustee for and placed a trade for an option on a stock that was held in the account to gain some additional money on a non-moving position.

I did the research for the option in that account, at least I thought I did. Ooops! I didn't double check the account I placed the trade in because I was tired and it was getting late. Double Ouch. Since in my account I did not have that position and it was an option to sell something I did not have, I had to buy it back and lost a modest amount.

Now I've learned that I must not do anything at the end of the day when my eyes and brain are ready for bed.
