Week of 2012 DE 14

(Another blah week where I didn’t feel like writing a report.)

SPY fell by 0.3% this week.  My account did the same.  The loss-floor fell to -6.0%, returning to its value as of OC 05.  So, no progress for the last two months.

My goal of “breaking even for the second year of trading” seems out of reach, although it looks like I will lose much less money this year than last.
