Green, but then, who wasn't today? No changes in the portfolio today, just hanging on to stuff, although MSFT tried for the ole stop out trick again.
Thinking about letting Robot go live with real money, for the first hour or two. With today's gain I might have just enough cash to be able to buy one futures contact on the YM. But instead of writing this, I need to go through his records to see how his win percentage is in that first hour or two.
Robot: 13 winners, 11 losers, plus 202.76
His first 5 trades were winners. Which put a thought in my head---I hope it doesn't get lonely in there all by it's lonesome.

Stuff learned from the months
EARNINGS: Never a good idea to hold through earnings...that one bad stock can toast a lot of profits (A LOT)
LAW SUITS: Stay away from these! (remember GS)
ADDING TO POSITIONS: Don't just dump a stock. Do some cost averaging, maybe it will help.
FUTURES TRADING: In March it cost all my profits and then some, so I stopped futures trading. The plan was working. That is until April when the 200 point down day and bad earnings (NTY -8.62) again cost me all my profits (save 21 dollars). Then I started trading futures again to get back to the green. So, really, no point here.........?
