Thank You Bob for the kind acknowledgement.....!

Don't know that anyone would call my personality an anal type..., Intense and focused yes...., disciplined sometimes..., but I'm a more centered-balanced type A then an extreme.

Marathon runners..., now there's a group that stands out for a remarkable dedication.

>>I have followed your intensity learning curve for years.<<
In October 1998, I watched Ground Zero go short the bonds and long the large S&P contract at about 960 on the 8th of October 1998 and hold them for 257 points.
I said, "Damn..., got'ta learn how to do this.....!!!!!!!!!"

I'd never heard of a "spoo" or cash market..., didn't know what a limit or stop order was, and I knew next to nothing about index timing. So I politely bird dogged the guy asking all these stupid questions for months..., and in the kindness of this man's BIG heart he taught me more then anyone about trading these futures markets.
He's a multi-talented highly Intuitive Genius.

So now I've got this here futures account, knwo what pitchforks and fibs are and know now that you have to cancel "Good to Cancel Stop Orders"......! I've still got my original investment and I'm still in the game. No gold bathroom fixtures yet, but I'm above water... and I don't intend to lose. So here we are Robert both learning a new wrinkle from da_cheif..., another master of the futures index trading world.

Go Figure....!

My Best,
Chip
