Limited trading capital (3 contracts) is not appropriate for active trading.
At this self imposed level, coupled with a technical software glitch around trade 75 (that resulted in a $3,000.00 loss), I struggled to regain lost ground.
Convinced that an increased capital base would allow me to lower my avg. cost p/ contract, I implemented such a practice when the market moved against me on trade 125.
With such a strategy in place, I have not incurred a significant loss since.

It has not been an easy month for the futures index trader.
While this chart shows some serious price movements, much of it was well anticipated.
The drop in the first third are the direct results of the re-election of President Obama. The second third was simply a correction to a over cautious market, and since then, the daily volatility ranges have diminished significantly.
Action has been concentrated, and highly reactive to ongoing Fiscal cliff arrangements.
