Wednesday Post

The short Aussie was stopped out overnight, so no ETF position was taken. This was communicated in this morning's post. The short Canadian Dollar was stopped out as well. The portfolio is shown below.

PORTFOLIO SYMBOL ENTRY CLOSE STOP PROFIT DAYS
Long Soymeal SMZ10 267.50 281.90 274.10 $1,440 22
Long British BPU10 152.87 152.66 151.19 -$131 2
Long British FXB 151.81 152.16 150.69 0.2% 2
Long Nat Gas NGQ10 4.531 4.590 4.592 $590 2
Long Nat Gas UNG 7.61 7.74 7.74 1.7% 2

Note that the stop on Natural Gas appears to have us exiting; however, this is because overnight the position has gained further ground to the upside and the stop has moved up.

There is one new signal for tomorrow: Buy Copper. The symbols are HGU10, and JJC. The record is 96 wins out of 112 trades for a win-ratio of 85%.
