<DIV><FONT size=2>With the daily interval for AMAT, for example, the Boll. band
system was consistently profitable for a period of 2 years. In fact, there
wasn't one losing long trade, and that's with no stops. There were two losing
short trades, and yet even the short trades as a whole netted a profit. I can
think of worse systems. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Here's the latest entry signal, at the lower B band (yellow).
There's a percentage formula for getting in, but it's proprietary, as it were.
See that beautiful bounce? That comes from buying at the lower band. Yes
indeedy. Don't work was made to work, I guess. </FONT></DIV>
