Just to keep the blog ticking over I thought I’d post the top 20 trades from the final two months of trading ’til end of March on the Capitalspreads.com account – first gains, then losses (they are all closing positions which means if it is a “Buy to close ” then I was shorting (or [...]

Decided to reign back in any impulses to trade the main stock indices and concentrate on building up a stake trading commodities – until its time to short the S&P500 again. Performance review since opening my account with 2 lots of £300 (US$1,200) on 11 December 2007 here is the performance over 90 or so [...]
