I didn't get to repeat the spectacular performance of 2009 (x2) and instead I merely stayed in the game in 2010, as you can see in the picture. I think that the lacklustre performance had more to do with my implementation of the Position Trading strategy in full public view than with the strategy itself. I made a number of mistakes for a number of reasons, but in the final reckoning those mistakes cost me only £565 this year -- which some may regard as getting off lightly in the dangerous world of spread betting.
My public portfolio has staged a convincing recovery (up more than 75%) since its low point in July 2010, so if you've enjoyed this warts 'n' all trading blog you will be pleased to hear that the story continues over at http://onpositiontrading.blogspot.com.
If you missed out on seeing how I run the Position Trading strategy in good times and bad this year (2010), you can read all about it in the book.

Thanks for running the blog Tony, its been very informative.
Have a good new year. See you over on your position trading site in 2011!
Well done Tony in running a fantastic blog which I have followed avidly all year. I have learnt a lot and have enjoyed reading all of your blog, and the books, Thank you so much.
By the way you did finally lose out to my conventional stockbroking account. I am up just about £850 on the year, however the percentage amount is almost exactly equal to gain in the FTSE 100 index, so my "fundamentalist" efforts have added zero value!!
