Regretfully, I have decided to withdraw from The Race. My trading results are my responsibility, but so are my decisions concerning the environment I trade in, and I do feel as if my participation in The Race was causing me to focus more on dollar results, participants' standings in The Race, etc. rather than on good, systematic trading. I wish the very best trading to all who continue in The Race. I really would like to see someone achieve this competition's stated goal! Best regards, FX Cowboy

Thanks for the encouragement, daedalus. You're absolutely right that I was struggling there for a while, and at one point, I strongly considered dropping out of The Race. In all honesty (and humility), I must admit that the large drawdowns I experienced had nothing to do with my system, and I wondered whether participating in this competition might be making it more difficult for me to trade well. (Some of the other traders have alluded to this negative influence, and I agree that it can be a factor.) However, for now, I have decided to stick with it, and to try to increase my focus and self-discipline so that I can avoid similar drawdowns as we go along. I'll continue evaluating my performance in this light as The Race progresses. Best regards, FX Cowboy
