{quote} I tend to agree with the traditionalists such as Transtrend because at least they have had a proven track record that they can stay consistent to their strategy. Cheers C

The discretion in which markets to take (outside of forever fixed) seems to be a massive factor, as the turtles somewhat confronted before and after they were released. I'm wondering if some of the best have improved results by picking instruments: something like XYZ is in a historically long tight range so lets add that on the next signal or ABC is in a historically unprecedented long trend, so let's drop that after we close positions. At heart, prediction seems futile though and prone to miss large moves. Still, it makes one wonder if some instrument filter could improve results like some of the best houses produce. I'm sure many have been down this hole.

Hi H. Unfortunately the Momo trader is proprietary and we don't have permission to distribute in the public domain. Sorry about this. :-) C

Good points mate. This is one of the reasons we are now deploying a dashboard that ranks the universal watchlist by momentum quality and an instruments correlation to the active portfolio and contribution to overall portfolio heat. It is still very early days....but an approach such as this seems to be bearing significant fruit. :-) C

Soy is literally unplayable for short term....

This is the closest I can place an order at LCG. Not mentioning that spread is 1/3 of daily move....

I am thinking about staggering oil with short term entry, since we are above BE with long term.

Good idea?

Natural gas jumped, but is it a sumo or a bird?

Yep mate. Several bites of the cherry on the short term can be well worth it.
