Coffee futures open after midnight Pacific Time. Our algorithm put us in the market at 288.90, and then stopped us out at 289.60 for a profit of $262.50. However, the BLOG said buy coffee, and then stated that Coffee had been stopped out. A BLOG reader would have gotten out at 284.00, for a loss of $1,838. This is what I will add into our total statistics. Someday, it is anticipated I will be able to send emails every second to all readers, thus disseminating the information as it is calculated.
