They have been rather steady, Bob, Since I stopped using Reuters. It seemed there were a lot of corrections to the Reuters Data....even in the middle of the night for the same day. When Pinnacle starting sending VIX I was set......I was going to stop using VIX, because it was the only thing I use that Pinnacle didn't have anyway. But I stopped using Reuters in June and the models have been a lot more consistent. I never would have thought the problem could have been connected to unclean data....I thought it was my fault. When the weather starts getting cold I'll expand on them now that I'm more satisfied with results. I've also been running some TS systems that are rather good. The last two "Live" trades using a TS system Shorted the SP9U at 1387.40 on 7/20, covered 1321.70 on 8/5.....then went Long 1304 on 8/11. Can't beat that. It's still Long, however.
