    Great day but again, missed some thinner entries. I feel this is becoming a problem.
    ElecEquity, you almost guessed it - actually it was even worse, I stepped in front of REDF.

  7. Thanks.
    Returns in 2009 were ~540%, in 2010, ~125%, and 2011 YTD is at about +60%.

    g
    p.s. needless to say, 2003 was -90%, 2004 about -85%, 2005 about -50%, 2006 about -50%. 2007 about -30%, and 2008, flat :p

  8. ah...those negative percent means you didn't make any money in the first 5 years?

  10. I know mods don't want discussion on this thread (I will not post more), but which of you guys are strictly equities traders? I see a lot of currency people and futures, but stock traders look like they all disappeared. Am I wrong in my assessment?

    Please PM response so I can avoid mod wrath.

    Best wishes.
