'n I'm right there w/ya.....been given away much of my hard earned profits the last few days.....good thing it's all demo.

The good news is..this is what I feel I must experience before goin live...it's the only real way to try & learn from one's mistakes. Agreed in that as far my KISS strat goes, this week the charts have been throwin me a curve of sorts....the good ol' law off averages is finally kicken my hiney I suppose. Short greenback positions have not been kind to me 1 bit. Go figure...w/all the ugly news comin oudda the US 1 would think the dollar would be havin more trouble than it has. Maybe we are at or very near the bottom here for the greenback? Good thing I stepped outside my comfort zone some & have played eur/jpy....that one has done OK for me....beginners luck it must be w/that 1.

But I will say this....it is nice to hear that someone else whose been having respectable results over an extended period has also been having some recent probs....indeed, misery loves Co :0

Think I'll go fairly easy today bein that it's Fri 'n all & try to regroup over the wknd.

But I'll end this 1 w/this lil mrkt diddy I got this AM...

BRIEFS

Energies - Higher inventories and longer term demand concerns pressure energies. Heating oil down 300, crude down 150 and RBOB down 300.

Yen - Yen corrects on profit taking and investment house activity. Japanese capacity utilization and industrial production to be released tomorrow (today).

Copper - March futures drop 630. US rate projections fail to encourage optimism in US construction market.

RMB - Fails to follow through on new recent highs as BoC stalls movement and pulls back the reigns.

Lumber - March futures post new contract lows as future construction questionable and supply lines open.
