I remember commenting to a friend before this years challenge started, that if a trader wins the contest I’ll eat my hat… I’ve always said that it’s far more profitable to be an investor, but it seems like Feral Wolf is forcing me to research hat recipes. Can you hang in there until the end of the year Feral? I’m sure many of the other members would love to hear what techniques and strategies you use, even if you just give quite broad descriptions.
Here’s the trades made by Feral Wolf this far:

On another note, this month saw a huge increase in web traffic to the site. Unique visitors went from 6,002 in April to 9,503 in May. The total visits also went up just as much, from 14,280 to 23,608. That huge increase also meant I had to turn off the live chat briefly as it was taking down the server. Don’t worry though, it’ll be back. The server is busy being migrated to a new cloud based server. It’s been a fair amount of work, which is also the reason there’s no blog this month. I’ll be moving the forum this weekend. There shouldn’t be any downtime, and the markets are closed anyway, so no transactions will be lost.
Have a good month.
