The Largest Loss Yet – I Wish I Was A Computer Nerd

November 1, 2009

Since I posted my virtual trade book I made 4 trade for a total profit of over $18,000. Today, I suffered a disaster that I won’t be able to over come. Those trades are gone.

During system changes I improperly restored the wrong version of my spreadsheet and wiped out everything I’ve done since 9/21/09.

So in keeping with the principles of integrity I must use the latest available records of my trades which is the one posted in my virtual trade book to continue. All posts pertaining to any October trades will be eliminated.
