Denarii, -$77 on 1000 shares traded.

I have to say that I'm a little discouraged by the volume in the market these last few sessions. We traded less than 1.4 billion shares today on the NYSE and the VIX moved down a bit.

Meanwhile, lawsuits notwithstanding, it was a good day for our new VO member Equine Trader. Despite the fact that I hate horses, (a horse bit my great-aunt Bessie to death) I let her into the VO.

In other VO member news, I suck.

Well, I have some familial obligations to attend to immediately after the close so I'm keeping this short. Any VOer who didn't get their P&L in, just throw it in the comment section.

sage,

Thanks for your interest. Currently, the VO is only open to stock traders only. I've experimented with future traders in the past (tapeworm, HPT) and have decided they're mostly crazy.

Besides, a gang of futures traders killed my great aunt bessie. I'd just feel wrong about it.

DT, thks anyways. sorry to hear abt your aunt bessie. Futures is a fantastic instrument to get abused by the market.

sage,

Should we need "crazy ass futures traders" in the VO again, I'll look you up.

Please feel free to add your P&L in the comment section each day to let us stock idiots know what we're missing out on.
