Notes:
- Positions are as of the morning of June 9, 2008. Numbers may exceed 100% due to leveraged trades or may not equal 100% due to rounding.
- Returns are not adjusted for leveraged positions. In other words, these are the actual returns in my accounts.
* Japanese/Asian equities profit is based on the Nikkei's return since the beginning of this signal - rather than my actual profit - because the initial trade was closed in one account and moved to a different account using another security to play the signal.
