David had a good observation in a comment post today. He says:
"This may be coincidence but you, Colin at Forexspirit, Simon from Simon Super Trader, and myself all had good Febuarys[sic]. But those same people had a pretty bad March except Simon but he did say in his blog that he had some very rough trades. Is this a coincidence or was the market acting really different?"
Colin at Forexspirit was up around 8% in the middle of March. I too was up over 6% on March 20th. He ended March down over 17%. He states in his post that he had a lot going on throughout the month and his energy level was depleted, something I can relate to. It's tough trying to become a competent forex trader when it's not your primary job. The best solution I had for this problem was to mold my trading strategies into and around my life keeping it higher up in my priorities yet not at the top.

Simon had a mixed month of trading hitting a losing streak but then recovered towards the end of month for a 180 pip gain. In his March review post, he does bring up an excellent point about blogging forex. He stated that he only had a certain amount of creative energy and a lot of it was being used at his full-time job. This was leaving less creativity for his blog. I too have had the same exact problem. My new job has been creatively demanding also and it certainly does affect my quality of writing.

I don't know if David has a blog so I can't give you any details on his results. I can only imply that he had a pretty bad March. I quickly scanned my charts over the previous three months and don't see any major differences in market reaction. Maybe you do. If so, please comment.
