No, I went to Italy. Great time though. Been to Ireland many times, only the second time in Italy. Thanks for the kind words. This thread has been an interesting "diary" for me. I have to say I don't trade it exactly the way it's presented here. For example, I've already been rolling into August, buying August on drops Selling June on spikes. Hoping Gold stays in this range for a few days. I think it would be healthy as it had a nice run higher while I was away. Basing for a few days allows me the added benefit of slipping into August at only slight risk not to mention the luck of being able to accumulate August at lower prices than I'm slipping out of June at. A few more 25, 35 point ranges like we had yesterday would suit the roll fine. As far as the thread is concerned, It's real value to me is that it's clear that this sort of thing might be done while paying almost no attention. That is to say that I do not have to sit here and try to scalp the roll. It may actually be riskier to do so. Won't find that out until the Thread position rolls.
