I'll sell my positions during the first week of February.

Meanwhile, my paper portfolio has had the following performance as of the end of January:

Portfolio up +21.3%
RUT up +7.7%

I outperformed the RUT by 13.6% to date.

Performance of individual stocks in the paper port:

ARTX 28.21%
HRT 4.10%
LOUD 3.16%
MNDO 28.40%
NEXM 31.25%
SGID.OB 12.86%
VRSO 42.16%

Computing the t-statistic, I find t = 2.3, so that I can say that I'm outperforming the RUT at about a 97% confidence level.

I'll repeat this report after the first Friday of February, which is the day that I usually "sell" my paper portfolio.
