<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>I was wondering if anyone uses a book by JOHN 
MOMSEN called&nbsp; ULTRA -RELIABLE&nbsp; SEASONAL TRADES.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>&nbsp;</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>I picked it up a little while back,&nbsp; as the 
stats go, it states,&nbsp; accumulated profits of 2,100,000 $$&nbsp; over 
21yrs,&nbsp; trading 1lots&nbsp; with only 41 trades a year.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>IT differs&nbsp; from most seasonals , in that he gives U the 
reason why it should happen, also a shows AVE-PROFIT, AVE-LOSS,&nbsp; PROFIT TO- 
LOSS RATIO, TOTAL PROFITS/LOSSES&nbsp; per trade</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>also&nbsp; gives&nbsp; U parameters to enter and exit,&nbsp; 
where to place stops, and a time window&nbsp; for the trade</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>the drawback for me is that it is a longer term approach, 
trading the back months,&nbsp; a lot of the stops&nbsp; are fairly&nbsp; away 
from market noise, and at this time I dont have the account to trade 
it</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>but&nbsp; for those that do , and are into seasonal 
trading&nbsp; it might be worth a look, book&nbsp; comes with a 1yr money back 
policy,</FONT></DIV>

I can see a lot of upticks on the emini so I can see where your stop could
get filled on the way down.

I was referring to the big contract where my BMI feed shows 46 ticks, all
moving down. Obviously, it was not reporting every trade in such a
situation so it is hard to tell what was really happening from the data
feed. Ben's experience was better than I would have expected.

Makes backtesting a little tricky, too!
