No New Signals for this Afternoon--Updated

Last night found the markets opening lower overseas, but then charging higher.

Exit Copper Market on Open.

For your information, there is a duplicate signal to buy Sugar (ignored for tracking purposes since we are already long). 

Also, we made money intra-night on the short silver position; we did not follow our short gold because of contagion risk.

Finally, we did not follow the Swiss Franc signal due to the fact that we are long the British Pound.  However, note that our buy Euro and Swiss would made money.  We are simply not tracking them in the BLOG because of contagion risk.
