I woke up this morning, and had a brilliant realization (to myself). I'm going to be conservative. So the recently funded account that was suppose to trade the high risk high return strategies (grid, martingale, pyramid, etc etc) will now become the Tortoise account, and the next account created will be the Hare account. I had given it some thought, and I didn't want the Hare account to blow up before I can even get the next account going. The $147.29 was left over from my previous venture into high risk high return strategy where I had blown up. So it isn't all fun and peaches around here. Trading is a tough business, and it requires a lot of respect and planning. I think I made the right decision today to go low risk low return first.

So today, I fired up the Tortoise account with the "slow, methodical, grandma speed, trend following, breakout loving" strategy.

Tortoise Account Summary (Post Date):

Deposit/Withdrawal: 5 147.29
Balance: 5 147.29
Equity: 5 147.29
