Friday's are only hard for me because of ETF decay. Likely really good for some, especially if only a quick day trade or selling calls/puts. Very OPEXy (swing both ways and close as if nothing happened).

Very OPEXy (swing both ways and close as if nothing happened). I agree, but I'm just too tired by Friday that my focus is not 100%...........buying the incorrect stock, shorting too early and covering WAY too early are signs for me to just hang it up for the day...........I chalk up today as a 1/2 tank of gas so I'll take it............considering I was going to cover if it hit $20 which would have left me ~ $250 in the red............. JMO and BOL..........

I'm slow/off today as well. Woke up with the intent of buying JNUG and AGQ (long silver). Missed both by a few cents. I hate the fact that I have to calculate my buys for leveraged ETFs against different ETFs (GDX & SLV in these cases). Sometimes my math will miss it. And I'm too slow for for doing the orders real time. Wish brokers had a way to set a dollar amount and stock for a purchase, then simply click BUY when you want to buy it and they figure the price and # of shares automatically.
