07 and 08 were my best 2 years in close to 30 years of trading.

I nailed the market collapse.

Same for me. 08 best year since I started trading in 1986
Last year I was up 237% with my whole capital.

Lost my ass on C, DCR, ES, etc. after a good start in the Spring.
Recouping some this year, so can probably last a while longer....hopefully long enough to learn how to trade. Stosh

Same here 08 best year for me, first couple of months of 2009 sucked for me (because of making really stupid mistakes) but beginning last month I am back to making nice profits mostly.

Wow. Amazing traders here, because '08 was a tragic year, yet y'all made it one of your best, if not the best, year ever.

Congrats.

Life is great, good thing I married for love not money!
