There is a glaring anomaly, however. While the future was stopped out when the metals plunged last night, the ETF was not stopped out. Therefore, it appears in our active portfolio below:

Only one new signal for tomorrow: buy Silver. The record is 90 wins out of 105 trades for a win-ratio of 86%. This has never happened in the BLOG's history so far. For long ETF silver, we have a very winning open position. We'll see what happens tomorrow, but I'll most likely show a new futures position as well as an addition SLV position. This will be for the benefit of those who wish to follow either system. For the BLOG returns, we'll use the ETF position we are already in for SLV.
Not clear? Let me know and I'll try to clarify. We've finished August with some fairly decent results.
