A loss of $130 w/commissions. I'm gonna need to start going long once in awhile...for some reason I'm fixated on the short-side. Tried to go...
A loss of $175 w/commissions. I missed the morning session; tried to go short twice, right close to noontime, at 897, and then at 899. Stopped out...
It wasn't the complete downside wipeout I was hoping for, but I'll take it. Looked for a gap-up at the open and got it. Went short with 4 SP-emini...
Another not-so-great day. A loss of about $322, including commissions. I wound up covering my $2-Dow short overnight - woke at 4:30AM, saw the SPs...
Finished today with a total loss of about $230, including commissions. I did violate my own trading rules on not trying to trade against the...
Went long today on the $2 Dow, at 9:45, it looked like a move higher was setting up ahead of the Greenspan comments hitting the wires. The market...

A loss today of about $330. Went short with one SP-emini this morning at 914, betting on further downside. Closed with a stoploss of $62.50....
Once again, no trades amid generally slow, light-volume 'bouncy' conditions.
No trades today. I elected not to play the open. U/D + TRIN were way too strong to bother going short. I thought I might have a shot at a good...
No trades today, Friday. There was one good play at 10:30am, from 830 to 890+. I saw it happen, but never entered a trade. I admit to being a bit...
