>>Tom, come out and play......<< Hi Peter--wish I could--but with the movers doing their thing, it has been impossible to follow the market or SI. Every time I relocate, I say that I will never do it again -- and then I do!! >>did your system take you out to "flat" yet or are you still on a buy signal? << System is still long -- and I am still long the futures at this point. My exit point to go flat would normally be at 1044 on the SPU--45 point gain. However, since I will lose access to my computer by tomorrow pm and this will hamper my ability to down-load data for signals, I will place orders tomorrow to go flat at 1044 or at the point when I would otherwise go short--whichever one gets hit first. If neither of these signals get hit then I will go flat, MOC. BTW, this is the approach that I will take with all other futures markets where I have positions at this time. Thereafter, when I am settled, I shall go long or short the various markets as and when the appropriate signals are generated. My regards Best wishes and good trading to everyone.

What a difference, 48 hours can make !!! >> did your system take you out to "flat" yet or are you still on a buy signal?<< Went flat at 1144 today, per the system, for a profit of 45 points. The system remains on a buy signal. Could not have asked for a better way or better timing in terms of closing out the trade--just before I have to break from all futures trading. Am now flat all markets. My last couple of hours with my computer before the packers take it away from me:( Regards
