your welcome 
hope to have more updates later in the day...
UPDATE! UPDATE! UPDATE!
I've just wired in fresh real $$$ cash into my futures account! No more demo trading for me...back to real/live trading futures. Did a lot of examining this and listening to the good input of fellow posters and decided to 'do away' with the spot Forex stuff, futures options stuff and also Nadex binary stuff as well...here is why..
1-for where I want to go $$ futures are the best vehicle to trade
2-futures markets are regulated
3-really like my futures trading platform
4-with the time I am able to give trading...better to be 'in and out' quick for a profit $$ than wait around on a fixed risk vehicle...
...also, man, sure am glad that the volatility is BACK and HUGE moves are back in the futures markets...REALLY missed being in the futures market last thursday, friday and yesterday...
Currently looking at to possibly trade tomorrow:
ES
TF
YM
SF
CAD
Soybeans
...again, thanks for everyones insight and encouragement...well...I'mmmmm baaaacccckkkk!!!!....looking forward to trading for real/live with real cash $$$$...
(fyi...uninstalled my demo trading platform...for real and seriously...bye bye demo trading!!!)

I guess all interest in this thread is...gone..."hello, anyone out there?"
the actual days on which I trade as opposed to the other days I traded
i've not reall been following this journal, I must confess.
You are going live now?
Have you had a month or so of very encouraging SIM results?
I've started my own little jounal too. All on SIM at the moment. Tired of throwing so much money down the drain. Need to get VERY consistent reults on SIM to convince me that this trading for a living stuff isn't a complete pipe dream!
If I can get a good amount of time being profitable ill look to join you and go live again.
The transfer would be smooth as im already well aware of the emotional side of live trading having traded live for months and months at a time before.
However, its getting to end up positive most days which is where the challenge lies.
So, i take it you've had very encouraging results in this journal so far which led you to going live at the moment?
cheers. good luck
Stop by my journal some time.
