Hi LH, Thanks for the kind word on "TTFAL". I didn't say too much about BTTT-MAX in there...what's your setup? I've been experimenting with a pairs trade system using a number of the ultralongs/shorts: SKF/UYG, SRS/URE, DUG/DIG, BGZ/BGU, FAZ/FAS, etc. Generally you buy both at the open and set a 5% trailing stop. On trending days this system works well. But in the tight chop chop like we've seen this week, it doesn't. So I'm working on different stop %'s and timing, etc. Keep us posted here with what you are doing...several here have used the MAX system in the past. Cheers, TC
