    I did a few quick trades. I'm flat now.
    We'll work on it a little later.

    are you allowed to run algos? Hft can win this easily especially if simulation is not done properly

    Up 9% from inception. Went into the close light on positions, so will have to make up for it tomorrow, provided there is something to trade.

  5. just takes 1 or 2 trades you should hit within the top 15 . Once in the top 10 I may stop. Kinda tedious after awhile.

    Cash increased bc I dumped 3 of the asym-flies in the taxable account. I am (relatively) position light now. Optimistically shooting for 20% on the week.
