over and over again, without discussing the individual trades you've made or the reasons for making them, is of no interest to anyone. Why would anyone want to read it?

But whatever, continue on if you wish and I'll leave you be.

@Josef K. The trades are extremely simple. I use one instrument and one only, the S&P500. And I trade only once at the closing bell, no stop profit or loss, so that my result is always a multiple of the S&P daily performance.

In a way I'm just making a prediction for the movement of the stockmarket the next day, and hopping to be more times right than wrong.

The reason why my posts are usually so short is because I have to post them exactly at the closing bell (for credibility).
