<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Just an update to my grain trade mentioned last
week "LEFT IN THE DUST"!!. Was correct in the direction of grains but
to date do not have a trade in the markets. Trying to buy options at the very
bottom was a bad strategy because I was never filled. With Beans up limit today
no sane trader would buy options at these prices. Two weeks ago when everyone
thought beans were going to 3.00 a bushel you could buy all you want. I learned
a valuable lesson: I can be correct on the direction but incorrect on my entry
and not make any money. Next time beans go to 26 year lows I will scale in Call
options as they collapse. Will have to change strategy as soybean call options
have become way overpriced. Happy trading. </FONT></DIV>

DOUBLE BOTTOM<BR><BR></DIV></FONT>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>GRAINS- It is my opinion that the grain
markets are headed for a double bottom. Here is how I will capitalize on
this opportunity. Will attempt to buy the March 550 soybean calls on a limit
order of 4.5 cents per call, $225.00 an option. If filled will sell half of
the position on a double and monitor remaining position. I have witnessed
over the past 6 months markets making multi-year lows on double bottoms. Oil
and Copper are a few contracts that come to mind. Happy
trading.</FONT></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>

Thanks nice to know that my first response was correct when I tossed mine
in the garbage. I never opened it much less called. Have only to 8/16 to
decide what a crock.
