My Results vs Market

I decided to take a look back over the last 9 months that I have been trading to see how my result compare to the two indexes where I have been trading.

Since Sept 2009:
S&P 500 is up 7.5%
Gold is up 21%
Goldsmith Investments is up 93%

This calculates to a ~10% gain per month which meets my goal exactly. 

So far I am thrilled to be beating the market hands down. I have definitely had some luck, but have also made big mistakes that cost me money as well. As each month goes by I feel I am getting better and better at making trades. Here is a chart of the progression of my account.
