I finally calculated the results from my advice for 2010 since the site was started in July:
(Calculated by assuming each trade received $10,000 into each position)
8 winners totaling 169% or $16,900 (excluding commission expenses)
5 losers totaling 100% or $10,000 (excluding commission expenses)
Totaling +69% or $6900
Winners 62% of trades placed and Losers 38% of trades placed
