    This is a market timing journal making directional calls with durations of a week to 2-3 months. The positions will be traded with a combination of stock and options. I am actually trading these calls but not necessarily at the prices that I will use for the purposes of this journal which will primarily use EOD prices. This is purely an excersize for my own benefit and should not be seen by any one as investment advice or recommendations in any way shape or form. I have no plan to EVER sell my signals or start a fund. As the excersize gets some time under its belt I hope it will generate some mutually beneficial discussion but initially there will not be much to discuss.
