Thanks, Mike, for the kudos. Congratulations on ABX! Nice call! I've been on a good roll for the last 6 weeks or so, averaging nearly 10% per week total account increase in that time, which more than makes up for a string of losses prior to that. It seems that every time I get away from the BTTT system I lose money. But with it I gain. We are up about 60% so far this year (1999), and twice that since I started this thread (getting better as we go along). I've made some minor refinements to the BTTT system, especially the short side of the market, which gets us into into trend reversals a bit earlier, for potentially larger gains. So far so good. I'm posting my picks once I see they are moving in the right direction. I hesitate to post them any earlier, for fear that I might be wrong. Also, I'm doing this very part-time, so normally I only have a few minutes (between classs, e.g.) to put on a trade, and not enough time to post it on SI. Who knows...someday I may start up a service for subscribers (a kind of dream, I suppose). But not until I can legitimately say I've turned my small trading account (we started with only about $10k) into a big trading account <ggg>. "Full-time profits from part-time trading" (a nice subtitle to a book I may write someday <ggg>). Befriend the trend, TC.
