Today must be the day they let the second guessers out of the closet. :)

I like the posters who put their ideas forth as well as their trade
recommendations, win or lose.  Some of us are small traders and some of us
trade some bulk.  In this forum, size doesn't matter (I've been telling my
better half that for years :)  ).  I also like the posters who have
developed different ideas on trading, or different tools (thanks Walter for
all of the Excel work that I've saved and hope to get to).  One of these
days, if I ever get time, I'm going to sit down and look at your CoCoLoCo.

Maybe it's just us guys from Detroit.  Hold the fort.

Paranoia...you only have to be right once to make it all worthwhile!

Hellen,

My life's an open book.  Who else publishes every trade? (You know, like
"real trades" actually being traded in "real accounts").  I'm short one unit
of July at 275.00 and added one at 280.75 this morning.  Based on account
size, risk/reward tolerance, and other subjective factors:  half of my
clients take every trade that is signaled and are always in the market.
Smaller accounts, (and smarter, non-addicted traders), trade a slower, more
conservative approach which isn't in the market all the time (same signals,
slower filter).  When wheat triggered today, it initiated a second position
in the "Always in, with a Grin" system and an opening position in the
"If you showed them a 90% win/loss approach, they wouldn't know what to do
with it" system.

As far as GOLD goes:  I don't trade it, unless I'm forced to by a client.  I
comment (at my site) on a few markets that I don't have any interest in
trading (yet, various national partners insist that I surmise a strategy for
certain markets).  I trade the other metal (silver) and since January 1,
1999 I've traded it 13 times without a loser (currently flat).  If you are,
indeed, paying attention and following the posts, you are aware that I
concentrate on cotton, feeders, oats, silver, wheat, and the stock indices.

Maybe, you're scraping the wrong "crumbs" off the table (remember, you get
what you pay for, and Hellen, I don't recall you ever sending me a dime).
The next time I post an trade, or the next time we trigger an interesting
topic at the forum, I suggest you "belly-up" to the discussion table and
offer you're concise opinions.

Before one can brag, or take criticism, one must first offer a specific
recommendation.  It helps your credibility if you are actually exercising
the trades.  As far as bragging goes...I'll leave that to the individuals
that have trusted me with their money.  As far as criticizing goes..I leave
that to the "non-contributers" that post once every six months.
