-38.94 and HAPPY to end the day there. 
Was out of town Thurs and Fri so no trading.
Today was wacky. Couldn't get much going then pieced together some cash. Only to face a huge rape, managed to weasel out of it. Luckily had some JPM short when the news came out at end of day. So I'll take it.
Gonna be out of town for the next week so will post when I can.

Today is my 2 year anniversary of when I first began trading. Ah, it seems like yesterday that I was trying to make 10 dollars a day scalping 100 shares of F.
Stats for May. Even though I didn't have any losing days I'm not that happy about the month. My bread and butter strategy made only 3000 (worst month in a year). The month before wasn't good either. Realized that I tried to make it too complicated cause I was greedy. So I reverted the strategy back to how it was 2 months ago and made 1500 of that 3000 in the last two days. So let that be a lesson for you all.... if it ain't broke don't fix it!
On the plus side, it was my best month this year and all the stats are better compared to last month and I believe things should continue to improve this month.
Even though it looks like I reveal much about my trading I actually don't. That's the combination of 4-5 systems that trade very different styles so there isn't much you can figure out from my stats. Because the styles are so different it allows me to be consistent every day despite market conditions.
Anyways. I started a new blog. It's a journal of my upcoming trip where I'll be backpacking across the world and trading at the same time. Just whipped it up last night so there's no content yet so give it a week or two. I thought I'd post it now cause I only post here once a month. Will begin my trip in Japan in a couple of weeks

Sorry for the essay I just wrote.
