Before the managed accounts report just to let you know that there is now a voice chat room for serious traders who like a bit of company during the trading day. - hope to see some of you in there http://squawkbox.ivocalize.net/
A lot of people lost their shirts last month. Hedge funds crashing all over the place, Banks in meltdown, Bear stearns almost going to the wall etc and many traders have been unable to manage risk and are in big trouble.
Delta 7 made a small loss in March of around 7%. The volatility in the markets gave us trends to make money but that same volatility often triggered our safety stops. In a strong trend our stops remain untouched but these moves although strong also have opposite moves just as strong. as such we were unable to ride these trends and instead opted for safety and avoid excessive loss.
This is the first loss on Delta 7 since May 2007 and so is not to be viewed as a system problem.
