Hello everyone. I trade a couple automated strategies using Index Futures. I started a weblog a couple weeks ago in trying to transition from my paper journal to an e-journal. It is strictly system based.

I thought I would post a link to the weblog when it updates in case anyone is interested. I do not want to discuss the logic behind the trades really so maybe this is not appropriate. I was just hoping for some interaction and possibly to invoke some dicussion with other automated system traders.

The journal is posted at www.sweetlettuce.blogspot.com

My core strategy did not trade today.

My Zapper strategy took a long position shortly after the close. Hopefully, I am buying a good value. I will exit this trade shortly after the open tommorrow.

Take care and good trading.

Trade No. 15 Zapper Weekend Long 6-3-2005

You probably think I'm nuts. (Hmmm). We will long up on the ES over the weekend. There was some nice interest at the end of the day. Hoping for a little boost on Monday morning after everyone has time to unwind. Long 6 contracts on the ES at 1,197.75. I will exit on Monday morning shortly after the open. Have a great weekend and enjoy some fruits of your labor. SweetLettuce

Trade No. 16 Exit 6-6-2005

Geezy. I am glad this day is over. What a weird afternoon. The cash and the futures were all out of whack. My equity was up $1300 one minute and zero the next. Don't these people know how hard that can be on the nerves. SL managed to squeak out a profit. Exited 7 contracts at the close at 623.20 for a total of 12 ticks times 7 contacts or 84 ticks for $840.00. Things closed high in the bell curve today.

Good trading to all.
