Glenda , some general comments.  Every heard of the term islands, and
continents??  If not I would pick up  some books by Kaufman.  Second are
the costs included in the net profit.  Third are you a trader that can
stand losing alot and winning big amounts on a couple of trades.  Very hard
on the mind.  

My personal thoughts -- I would not touch this system.

Mark.
