1:35pm CST - Missed opportunity taking 1st trade off early.  Then things were dead slow.  By the way, didn't mention it Wed. but this is a new method I'm testing out.  To be continued next week with perhaps adding other instruments.

Wed. 2/08 +0.0%

3:35pm CST - Switching gears and trading some oil.  Will be making 1 trade a day, most days.  If I can produce positive days of the same magnitude as losing days 60% of the time, I"ll be happy.  In other words, 4 days of the week can be net breakeven with 1 winning day each week.  Today's trade had potential but stopped out.  Was looking for at least 20 ticks.
