    Wow - some awesome performances out there. Congrats 1Reason, austin, dustin and the rest. And EricP - that is really, really amazing.

    I hit my best ever day x3 on record volume. Finished +$22,671 net on 330k shares. Went straight to the pub afterwards without saving the blotter so I'm attaching an extract from my statement instead.

    Have a good weekend all

    -7 for the month, and was literally saved from a -150 month or potentially much worse by the ramp in oil this week and a position in WM and ESLR. Haven't had a nail bitter like that in a long long time and was a leasson relearned in being careful about getting too creative in hedgie one's position. Congratulations to all who killed it this past week/month.

  8. Thank you Eric for posting that, it really shows what is possible...and BTW I am really jealous, took me almost 10 months to reach that, and you pulled that off in a day. Congrats.

    Amen to that, and to all the other posters here regardless of results

    From 9:30am ~ 10:30am EST | 20 contracts ES
    ES short 1243.75 = trailed out 39.75 | +4pts
    ES short 1237.00 = stopped out 39.00 | -2pts
    ES short 1241.00 = trailed out 37.00 | +4pts
    ES short 1237.00 = stailed out 1233 | +4pts

    That's it for me today, and the rest of this week. Accepted a last-minute invite to hunt caribou in far northern Quebec... last-minute preps today, depart wee hours tomorrow and then gone until next week. I expect to come back seeing the Dow up or down 1,000pts from present. Hope y'all catch the bulk of any big rides in my absence :)
