    Probably should I stop for the week! another good day today ... +24k

    I don't really want to give back this week's gains to Mr. Market! ... so ...not so sure I'll be trading tomorrow!

    PS: I trade 6 different Markets, financial and energy futures.

  2. ~5k net.

    haven't had anything very interesting to post this week...been muddling thru for most part w/ small losses. hope options ex will be decent.

    starting to see VXX come alive a bit with it flattish today with market up. wanna give it a chance to work.

  3. Another decent day.

    +18

    I won't be trading tomorrow. Volume and volatility have been poor. Tomorrow is a Friday before a holiday weekend, so it could be even slower. I'm going to take the day off from trading.

    ---------

    Tomorrow, is options ex. SDY and PFF rebalance on close... Monthly S and P reweightings, as well. It is surely not going to be slow.

    Not necessarily going to be good, but def not slow.

  9. ~+-0

    Perhaps, I should have listened to earlier poster and not traded today...

    I did okay day trading, but got pummelled in my swing in VXX. what a POS this instrument is, but everyone already knew that. goes to show you not to trade something you dont understand...

    the contract rollover is brutal in this pig.

    have a good weekend everyone.

  10. +1043. scaled down to only one contract after losing too much earlier in the week, and it helped today. maybe pennies do make pounds.
