What a buzzsaw. Thankfully I only traded a bit this morning. Work contract ends in one month, then back in F/T. I just read Szeven's end-o'-2007 post - yikes; he'll be back - they ALWAYS come back . . . Blotter up today, and ITB!

I am back, so hello again y'all - My F/T contract gig is almost up, so I re-funded my trading account, and I am back, baby! Happy to see some healthy volatility (did it go away ever?) No blot today, but +790 on the ER2. Awesome first day for '08 . . .

No blot, but posted +80 after watching a very shallow grave being dug - by me, no less. Not trading much this week, as I am exhausted from remodeling. Join me, won't you, in praying to the gods of volatility to bring us an exciting earnings season. Can I get a witness? How about an Amen?

Back trading (finally) and from the new house. I missed the Fed action last week (insert curse words here). ER2 - 30 points? Uhh . . . ahem . . . WTF? However, big up to Comcast for the 14 MBPS peak speed, averaging about 10 down/2.5 up, at +7db. Yeah, way hotter over here . . . suck on...

Finally, after a tenuous week of going long Gold long (yikes!) Coming back toward the black for the (currently red) month. Have a great week y'all, and see you on FOMC Tuesday for the big ride!

Got thrashed in the pit yesterday -$2426. Idiot moves by me, and failure to trade with momentum. Have a long position on now, waiting for the FOMC to make a move. Bad month thus far.

No blotter, but battled back to end ITB at $50. Hey, an up day is an up day . . .

Weird action off the open today; quick scalping for $220.40. I hope everyone out there kills it today, as I am done for the day (bought a house . . . cheaply, I might add). Have a great weekend all!

Just a quick scalp this morning, but ITB nevertheless. Up $15K net for August.

Hey y'all. Took all of last week off to re-tool trading plan, and sit out the sideways action (ahhh). Back on the plan today with 1 RT on the ER2. Scaling in/out going fwd. Back to work . . .

Playing NatGas Fut today for a change, booked early out of fear, but + nevertheless, and fighting back from this weeks carnage. A word on your internet connection: Chicks and Dudes, beware of DSL. Mine was running at less than half the normal speed on Mon and Tues because of rain, yes rain...

No post yesterday, but -3300. Two day losses mounted during deadly narrow price range on ER2. The word for today is: "SCALP!". Momentum, volume, and volatility should be back next week, I hope.

Obliterated all gains from last week, by being on the wrong side of EVERY move today. Biggest down day this year!

The gods of volatility are raging, but I am not. Great day! Weeks totals: +$4130, provided I stay out of the last hour. Best of luck in the pit today y'all.

Short day, but in the black; buying a house, which looks better at $40K below original listing.

Okay, I can dig a hole, but I can also backfill . . .

Works for me . . .

Siphoned 60% of July/Aug earnings from my account this AM to book cash and start over. Max contracts are now 2 (more movement to gain, but losses are minimized . . . thank god

Woulda, coulda, shoulda . . . and did. ? = ER2 today (lagging badly), however, she's giving it away in bulk. Short trading day for me today. . .

Battled out of an over-trading hole that I dug all by myself! :eek: ' As one of the traders here posted last week: "plus is better than minus".
