for Mid-Am<BR><BR></DIV></FONT>
<DIV><FONT size=2>All Mid-Am currencies are half-size contracts, except for
the British Pound which is only one fifth of the full size contract.
No EFPs are available for a size less than 1 full CME contract. Some
firms even require a minimum 5 lot to trade EFPs. To protect a Mid-Am
currency contract (except for British Pound), Ira's idea of buying an option
is good. Buy an at-the-money CME currency option with a 50% delta,
combined with 1 Mid-Am currency futures contract (except BP) and you'll be
"delta neutral", theoretically.</FONT></DIV>

RT's,
When I test a method, I do not take the norm of T-Bonds, Coffee and the
S&P. I feel that if the method will work on Corn and Oats, markets that
normally do not have much of a move, I am on the right track. Something can be
said of making money from markets that are not traded by the masses. If a
method only works on wide swinging ranges, when will you know when that event
is over?
