It’s Monday and the last week of the Profit Run. I’m holding off posting the results until the end of the week because I didn’t want to jinx myself. I’m not superstitious but why ask for trouble?
The week started off rather “blah”. We had a few good opportunities and a few bad ones. The problem is that volume seems to be very low and I’m not sure why that would be. It’s still a couple of weeks before Christmas starts thin the volume but it should be fine now. Somewhere in the commotion I lost $185.
