Bruce,

Here's a suggestion for your consideration. I've just started using it so I
don't have a sufficient track record yet, but I feel better (i.e., less
indecisive) about my trading. 

I have my program generate stop values at the end of the day and set them
at night for the next trading day. This way, the actual trades are
automatic - the market actually decides for me.

Hope you find this to be of some value.
