I received that data from a mutual fund owner/manager. He used a breakout
system. All trades were computer generated and computer entered, so there
was no human factor as to entering or exiting a trade. The fund netted its
investors 14% return at the time. The fund received a 5% management fee and
7% of the profits. That is all that I remember. I received these facts
about 10 years ago and I believe that the percentages are probably less in a
non trending market. The did both futures and stock. At the time I
believe the fund had about $250,000,000 under management. For the life of
me I can't remember the name of the fund or the managers name. I have
looked high and low for his card and that has eluded me also. Those senior
moments seem to be getting closer together. Ira
