Just added another $230 to our IRA from a trade of 2000 shares of TZA; long at $9.62 and exit at $9.68.

Today I added another $80 to the IRA in which I've been live trading using 2000 shares of TZA.  Not getting rich by any means, but I'm acclimating to live trading in small bits at a time.

Today I traded TZA in Mrs. BCT's retirement account and added another $140 to the totals shown in the screen shot.  My trading is limited because the account is not set up for margin.  Hence, funds get locked up for 3 days after I make one move.  Further, I made only one trade in the first two weeks of February.  Yesterday, I had a timely entry in TNA but bailed out far too soon.  I took about $250 from a possible $2300 available to me in the trend I was trading.  I must learn to trust my instincts and manage my desire to take the quick dollar.

ADDENDUM:  I just added a $60 winner in TZA to the $140 in TNA this morning. $200 total today.
