No post yesterday. Went out for Halloween with a couple of good friends and was not in the condition to trade. I have a couple of the 1350 jans puts in the spoos and long 7 yen futures around 8450. I continue to remain long short in the cash account. Gradually moving into more shorts. Last night on The News Hour there was an interview with a milatary historian who painted a rather bleak situation on the war in Iraq. More troops are needed and if we decide to pull out the country would fall apart rapidly.

Dr. Brett had a good article on out of control trading. I've been there.
