Late in 2008, I opened an account at EVERBANK, then liquidated almost everything, and purchased one year CD'S yielding 4.9%.
I still have two ROTH, accounts that I am NOT trading that are earning only about 1%.
Last night, I did some more AFL coding in my ongoing quest for a HOLYGRAIL rangebound CCI indicator.
Gerard Carey graciously provided me with the mathmatics that make the Amibroker CCI stay RANGEBOUND from zero to 50.
For anyone who may be interested, the code for the Gerard Carey rangebound CCI is below this line. Ron D
-----------------------------------------
periods=Param("Periods",15,1,100,1);
scaleCCI=StDev(CCI(periods),3* periods); //scale CCI swing
rbCCI=0.5*(1+tanh(CCI(periods)/scaleCCI));
rbCCI=25*rbCCI; //CCIboundto[0,50]
rb=rbCCI;

This is a world wide forum. We almost always talk about AB and how to work it. We almost never talk about actual trading.
Is the world wide economic crisis as bad in your countries/locations as it seems in the US? What changes have you made to your usual trading patterns, explorations, signals, etc. to accommodate this crisis? What are you finding is most successful? Short side obviously. Buying Puts? ?????
Just curious.
