Sorry that I haven't been around Chip Took a freelance job with a hedge fund. But, still trading Futures for my own account. --------------- Gold, Silver, and the Platinum/Palladium complex are in a bullish seasonal period that started in September and generally runs through November. I took my positions off on Friday, I believe. Don't recall the exact reason why, but started adding again on Monday's drop. My Stop in Gold at the moment is 1310 on the December contract. My first target for Gold is 1405, so my Risk ~Reward is roughly 70 dollars to 25 dollars. I prefer Silver, but have been day trading the Dec Silver contract. Haven't picked a point where I want to be in for a trade lasting longer than a couple of hours. I used a Channel Method to enter Gold, I will use one of William's methods to add to Gold or enter Silver for a longer term trade. The current Gold stop is based on the Channel rules. Most of my trading now is based on William's techniques. I am long Corn and Bean Meal from early this morning. The method also gave a Buy on Beans but I felt it was too much exposure to the grain market to take all three. Beans also required a lot more Risk. ------------------------- Your post is back on October 1st. Would not have been a bad call however the Greenback was still spiraling down. Perhaps you were just early. My Market read shows a bull move in Equities by the end of this month, but I haven't a trigger yet. I'm impressed by the fact that while my short term signals are flashing sell set-ups the Market isn't cracking. This Divergence may lead to good Buy signals if the Equity market gets some fire under it. Best would be a short term re-trace then we Buy the breakout. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
