End of the Week!

The markets have been wild the past several weeks.  Europe has dominated the landscape, with every day bringing new problems and more proposals for bailouts and austerity.  The effect on the US has been profound, and when the news that the Fed might intervene came, this caused further instability of US markets.  Overall, our results were mixed for our futures positions.  We were very lucky on the metals; while getting nothing right on the currencies.  Surprising, since normally the currencies have been good to us.  Hopefully, we'll continue to get our percentages.

The only signal for Sunday afternoon is another short gold!  Good luck!
