    Data problems today and some personal stuff on top of that. This week it has really gone all wrong (even if the dollar result isn't catastrophic).

    0428: -$290

    Bad week and a fairly weak month. I'm jealous of prop traders who don't have to pay attention to leverage - my other strategy which I cannot trade due to funds now had the most amazing week, oh well.
    End result for the day is ironic considering how many trades I took on.

  5. You're a profitable guy. You know what you're doing. Why don't you consider trading prop? I'm sure there are reliable remote options out there.

  6. Here's my month of April. Underperformed March, and 50% of my month was one day... which was one huge trade, really.

    I probably could but I'm overly paranoid (severe trust issues due to past experience) about someone monitoring my trades and nullifying my edge. I'll stick around and hopefully reach PM during the next 3-4 months.
