    TOTAL P&L = 2 487$

    New positions
    +100 CEDC
    +200 IFLO
    +200 KCS
    -200 ESRX (it should only be -100...)

    I reached a new step today. My maximum position size is now 400 shares. My goal next week will be to increase my positions to at least 300 shares instead of 200.

    I had a good week. I think the key to my succes was the fact that I have a good routing now and I use a good trading tool. I am now using Esignal for realtime charting and this has allowed me to be more consistent. It is important to have a good system to make proper decisions.

    One other thing is that I inetend to stop publishing my trades by the end of this month. It is time consuming.

    Good trading,

    TOTAL P&L = 2 752$

    +50 CEDC

    New trades
    +300 EXLT
    +300 LIOX
    +200 NEWP (should be 300 but the stock move up too quickly)
    +200 EVG (should not have bought the last 100 shares)

    Good day, I could increase my size as expected.
