Friday Update

Stocks are lower: dollar and gold are higher.  The gold trade from yesterday was stopped out overnight.  That's a shame as gold is up $20, just what we thought might happen.  It's also interesting that gold has been holding and now rallying as the dollar continues to go up.  This is not a good sign for treasury futures.

None of the overnight moves are out of line with the channels they've developed.  

If we can get a rebound into the mid teens in the S&P, there may be a day trade sell.  

I will be leaving about an hour before the stock market close today to travel to Phoenix for a PFGBEST.com weekend conference.

There is a substantial risk of loss in trading commodity futures, options and foreign exchange products. Past performance is not indicative of future results
