Raschke Golf Trade ???<BR><BR></DIV></FONT>Based on certain indicators, you
buy or sell the S&P on the close and hold it overnight, looking to exit
the next morning, and taking advantage of any "gap" that might
occur in your favor. Called Golf Trade because you put in your stop
loss (used to be 300 pts when 100 points were worth $500) and your profit
target (used to be 100 points or whatever extra was gained from gap -- yes,
1:3 reward to risk ratio) and go out for the day to play golf.
Several years ago there was a period when the trade was over 70% profitable,
but with the increased volatility of the last 1-2 years, the overnight
exposure has perhaps more risk than the advantage of the gap opening.
Don't know how it's doing lately.

<BLOCKQUOTE TYPE = CITE>I "believe" it is part of her Taylor
method type trades. This one refers to the tendency of the S&P
to follow through for 1-3 hours after a so-called Buy Day (open low and
close high). After follow through, the markets will consolidate
and possibly reverse.

You might also note that Pinnacle has a method by which they
are able to correct errors easily.
I found out the other day that regardless of where in time
you find an error, if you report it to them, they will quickly
get the correction into the data.
Granted you have to "rebuild" the file with error if it is
way back but that (5 seconds) is a small price to pay for
corrected data.
