No blotter yesterday - was ill and finished the day early just slightly better than b/e. Today - still ill but, to perk me up, the strategy had it's best day yet. One of the sub-strategies gave some back but overall, great day. +2185 usd net.

Low volume, crappy day

Worst day in a while for the equities strat but definitely no disaster. Result is more due to a lack of any big winners than any especially big rapes. Net -450 usd approx
