Linda,

You may want to consider buying options instead of trading the underlying
commodity. This could give your system a chance to prove itself while
defining your max risk. It's not as exciting but it gets you in the game and
allows you to play longer. I also find the following motto helpful in
keeping things in perspective:

"Sometimes you eat the bear, and sometimes the bear eats you." Feel free to
substitute bull for bear as required for the current trend.

Jack
