<BLOCKQUOTE TYPE="CITE"><FONT size=-1>For trading (I'm not a system trader)
I use continuous unadjusted to preserve the original price action and
patterns and keep an eye on the gaps caused by joining contracts. I use the
continuos for monitoring long term monthly and weekly resistance, support
and patterns.</FONT><FONT size=-1></FONT>
<P><B><FONT color=#3333ff><FONT size=-1>. . . why do you use the continuous
charts for weekly and monthly work, when virtually all of the gaps disappear
on these compressions and you would profit from having "real" (actually
traded) numbers to base your S/R calcualtions on? Especially on
long-term issues, the longer the look back the greater the distortion on
continuous charts.</FONT></FONT></B><B><FONT color=#3333ff><FONT

<DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=840382514-07101999><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial size=2>I have
been following the Wheat comments with much interest, for I am of the opinion
that the Wheat "cash" market is putting a long term bottom in the form
of a Bullish Head & Shoulders pattern<SPAN class=820220815-07101999><FONT
color=#000000 face=Arial size=2> (one more slight pullback could be the right
shoulder)</FONT></SPAN>. I like to run Elliott Wave software on a <A
href="http://marketinterface.net/W_forecast.weekly.gif">five year weekly cash
chart</A>, and it indicates that the Bear Market that started in April of 1996
is coming to an end<SPAN class=820220815-07101999><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial
size=2> (one more pullback could be wave five of wave five)</FONT></SPAN>.
When I see a setup like this I then look to a momentum oscillator on the <A
href="http://marketinterface.net/W_obos.gif">weekly cash and the daily nearby
futures</A>. If the weekly cash oscillator is trending up from a<SPAN
class=820220815-07101999><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial size=2>n
</FONT></SPAN>oversold condition, I then look to the daily momentum oscillator
for a very oversold condition to time the trade with.<SPAN
class=820220815-07101999><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial size=2>
</FONT></SPAN>Currently my charts indicate that all of the above conditions have
been met<SPAN class=820220815-07101999><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial size=2>
(except for a clear pattern of a right shoulder on the weekly cash)
</FONT></SPAN>... now the hard part<SPAN class=820220815-07101999><FONT
color=#000000 face=Arial size=2>. Do I start entering long trades now or
do I stand aside and wait for the weekly cash to pullback just a little more in
order to complete the Elliott Wave pattern or the Right Shoulder ... then on the
other hand the futures could move higher (for a while) as the cash works lower
... could get out the old coin.</FONT></SPAN></FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>Talking about real trades here is one I am putting on
beginning this week. I have begun scaling into the wheat market. It looks
like the grains are heading for a double bottom and may take out
contract lows. I am buying the March 320 calls on every 10 cent decline in
the wheat market beginning at 280. Buying equal amounts at 280, 270, 260. It
has been my experience that when markets RE-TEST multi-year lows, that
is the time to buy them. Since I have no idea where the grains will
eventually bottom I will scale into the trade. Happy
trading. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>From time to time, traders actually discuss
"real" trades on this forum (the current sugar debate).
This is a really great "idea" that should be explored on a
daily basis. Think of it: a place where
"realtraders" can exchange "real trading"
ideas. It's a concept that could catch on.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>For those who monitor real trades in the
grain market:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>9/29: Went short: corn (214.75), oats
(116.00), & wheat (286.50); (December contracts)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>10/6: Covered and went long oats
(110.50)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>10/7: A close below 203 in Dec. corn
and 262.25 in Dec. wheat triggers long positions tomorrow.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This has little to do with the crash of
'29, Alan Green"spun", or all those "politicos"
conspiring to make my life miserable in the gold market. But,
guess what? Real people are in these real trades, making real
money, not letting the "news" influence their approach, and
they are certainly not sitting around theorizing about the rise and fall
of US economy. </FONT></DIV>
