My problem has been volatility.. Haven't really tallied up my w/l % on trades because, until August 08 I tended to have a good number of home runs.. (the junior fertilisers last year were spectacular :O) with many small losers. My problem had been holding losers and having 'hope' but I worked hard on that after a couple of huge PF value drops.. in prior years... it came together well from 05 to 08.. by mid 08 I was high cash ... as high as 96%.. I'm trading less than half my PF here trying to adapt to the new reality.. since I'm not a good ST trader... yet.. :O) I'd say I'm hitting 80% on my yield plays, great on the infrastructure... the solar angle has not panned out well yet at all... Maybe a bust for now... too early.. The ST in this environment trading is only starting to bear fruit for me..

Don't forget to enjoy yourself ... you're gonna die
I stayed whole in 2008
Feels like old times.. :O)
