Loyal Citizens:

The market does not care what Hussein Obama and Mr. Boner discuss; it only cares about EOY. You good people of iBC should never lose this time of year, that is, unless you were long Gold like myself. In the coming weeks, once things settle down a bit on the front lines here, I will explain my investing style and a few systems I use to take emotion out of my trading. I’ll also post the code to one TradeStation futures system for the ES I use as a token of my appreciation for your readership. As always, YOUR portfolio performance can be found HERE.
