      On days that I am depressed about the "learning experiences" that Ihave piled up, I try the pre-market breathing exercise first. If thisdoesn't work, I open my word processor and write about my bad trades. Whenthe exercise works, I return to trading. When it does not I take the restof the day off and use the time to research. I am always comfortable witheither outcome. I either refresh myself and bring about a neutral,objective mindset, or I further the process of education and understandingof the markets. Both of these alternatives are more appealing to me thangetting desperate and gambling the market.
