Well, today is the day... I fought this trade admirably, but I've had it since May and EWZ refuses to drop into my profit zone. Today, I'm finally shutting it down for a small loss. Looking back at my defensive maneuvers, I did well despite an unaccommodating market. This trade was a max loser for quite a while and I managed to save myself from a loss of several hundred dollars. It feels a bit anti-climactic, but I'll look for new trades next week. The market is finally showing signs of potential weakness, so we'll see if it actually comes to fruition.
