Based on certain indicators, you buy or sell the S&amp;P on the close and

you put in your stop loss (used to be 300 pts when 100 points were worth

Stay Away.   That risk/reward ratio is deadly.   I got interested a few years 
ago, based on a friends results.  By November he had made over 28000 with it. 
 By middle of december he was down $4000 and quit.  Those that didn't quit 
lost another $8000 on the next few trades.
