The Year is half done. Grade yourself.

Today marks the end of the first half of the trading year of 2007.

Add up your gains & multiply by 2 to get your annualized gains.

Did you do BETTER than you hoped, AS WELL as you hoped, or WORSE than you hoped?

I did as well as I had hoped.

i expected to earn 60% a year, so i can have 10 folds in 5 years. last year, i made 100%, this half year, i made 100%, so i am well ahead of my schedule. i only have 1 down month this year which is june. the loss in june is less than the gain in may, so i didn't have much drawdown.
 
I am right about on pace for my goal, but i missed a few opportunities and made a few dumb mistakes, so i am give myself a a poor grade for the first half. In an environment like we have had I should have done better.
 
I'm up 30.77% for the year, but really pulled it out of my a** in June with a 17% month. Coincidentally, June's the first month I was able to trade every single day and follow all my rules. My goal is for 100% for the year, so I'm behind, but content. Hopefully less of 'life' will get in the way during the second half.
