Top Trades of the Month July 2016 WRITTEN BY George Khoury

Hello Fellow Traders!

I have the distinguished honor of sharing this month's Top Trades!

It was another excellent month of trading. While July didn't have an Alpha Mox Jet traded like in June, there was an equally impressive trade, at least in terms of value. The top trade for July was a Beta Tropical Island at 225,096 points! For reference, an Alpha Mox Jet is currently 96 points less.
