MSA (Mapping Strange Attractors) July performance report (07/01/2012 - 07/31/2012):

When you have 5M you stop bothering about trading. When you stop trading you get bored. When you are bored you become a lawyer. When you become a lawyer you keep thinking about trading. When you keep thinking about trading your work suffers. When your work suffers the wrong man is convicted...
