Well, managed to end the month on a slightly better note.
+$1,279 net
This brings me up to +$13,800 in July. I'm content, if not delighted, with that.
August could be an exciting month for me - following a big development effort, I am almost finished building the prototype for my algo to automate, send & receive FIX with my broker. This should enable me to manage many more stocks in my strat. Hopefully it'll all be on-line for testing before the end of August and operational late Aug / early Sept; we'll see.
Good luck for August everyone
