I bought a call in the morning. Was watching the chart and didn't think it was going to hold, so sold for $200 profit. Not long after that it started ripping. Grrrrrr! I'm going to study up on straddles/strangles this weekend and give them a try. Been watching posts about them and think that might be an answer.

As long as one sold at planned price and made money, it's all good.

After so many times in so many years I left money on the table, I don't have any feelings any more, I just move on to the next opportunity.

Most recent example: after I closed my EUR/USD position for a tinny +29pips(hope my memory is good enough), it moved up at least 150 pips in one day!

There are always more opportunities in the market, be happy with your profit.
