Bill and all,

I am curious as to who takes the hit when the SP has another few
days like October of this year, and 1987? 

I can picture THAT phone call ---

"Well gee, we were wrong this time, so here's 500 bucks, and a
$2,000,000 margin call. "<G>

Is Mr. Selin adequately representing the risks inherent in such a
trading plan ??

IMO, this sounds like a good way for a brokerage to collect nice
fees 90% of the time, and walk away leaving the client holding the bag
the 10% of the time that the strategy fails.
