Well Whip, really can't wait for this week to be over... Nothing good has happened... Stopped out of a couple of trades that were showing some promise, and out of another that was showing no promise(A/U)... Current trades doing nothing... Yet, we're still on our feet, and ready to come to scratch..... For the next round...... Back in AM............P

Mornin' Whip, The simple pleasures in life are the ones we become most attached to... Like the strong first pot of coffee in the morning... Cup #1 laced(graced?)with anisette... ALWAYS... The stepping stone from whence the day's activities begin... On balance, trades are positive... No new developments... Hope the market gets moving soon... Tired of watching paint dry......

Would sure like to do coffee your way......But anisette in the AM would bring my day to a halt

Been riding out to the Swamp lately... Watching hawks... At the Raptor Trust, where injured raptors are cared for and released, or are kept if they can't fend for themselves, there is an antique hay rake... The kind used before modern bailers were developed... It stands at the entrance to the parking lot and is a source of great interest to the visitors,"What is it?" "How does it work?"... Long curved tines, a long lever to be pulled by one sitting on a seat sprung on a length of flat steel... I sat on that very seat and operated that lever over fifty yr. ago. Old man Stadler, the German, pulled that rake behind his caterpillar tractor, with yours truly, aged 12-13 operating the lever, making hay... Raptor Trust is about 15 minutes by bicycle up the road from where we lived, 60 yrs. ago... 10 minutes from the Old German's...

I remember those hay rakes well....When they first came out they were pulled by a team of horses......I never got to ride one, I was always using a 3 pronged fork stacking loose hay on a wagon and hoping when the wagon hit a bump all the hay wouldn't slide off.....All of us kids got 50 cents a day to help and thought we were going to be rich.......Great days....

That was the part I dreaded... Dust, seeds down the shirt, pants, all over... Pulled loaded hay wagon to the barn, dropped the hook, lifted, and finally pulled hay into loft... then prayed for a month for no spontaneous combustion......

BTW, we were all paid in goods... When Mr. S slaughtered a pig, or a steer, or when Mrs. S made some of her fab jams, we got paid... Same barter arrangement for shoveling cow manure at Mr. H's dairy...

E/A moving well, E/U suffering... We took a cuffing this week, but, since we never risk enough to to make a serious dent in acct. balance, we never broke a sweat... Low stress is good... Have just closed trades. Back to reassess Sun. night....... Whip, see you Sun. >>>>>>P

Hi Whip, Looks like reentering E/A is the only trade to be taken by our method.... E/U does not qualify with latest TL redraw... Have put a B stop at E/A Friday H + ( 0.10)ATR333 + spread... 1.4433... Back in AM...

Mornin' Whip, No trade yet on E/A.... A good example this morning of why I usually (but not always!!) prefer to be stopped into a trade rather than just jumping in... We'll see what the day/week brings... 30 degrees ATM says the thermometer outside my window...... Back at close...
