  1. Hey folks,

    Family matters have come up. My father is not doing well in '08 thus I have postponed my little project so I can focus more on him.

    Thank you to everyone who has been following my little journal and for all your kind words.

    I hope to start a new journal in the future.

    Good luck to all and God Bless!

  2. Best of luck with everything with your father. I'm sure everyone else is subscribed like I am so like the markets we'll be here when you get back. I am anxious to see what else you have.

  4. >>Earth to PersistentTradr, 3% weekly on a consistent basis is unrealistic and (I'm not even going out on a limb here) impossible.>>

    deviltrader,

    I don't mean to be rude, but I bring home an average of 100% per week and have over the last 35 months. No doubt that compounding forever is fantasy, especially in futures, but a 3% net per week is quite doable with the right systems, limited market exposure and near-perfect execution. Why can you not see or believe an average of more than the 3% per week PT was talking about?
