OK, SG. I will go through my past research and bring it up to date and let you know what I find. Years ago I lost a boatload trading commodities, but without the TA skills I am learning here. One thing to beware of are the bid/ask spreads and the CBOE traders. If you go back to news from 1987 when I lost big you will find that 105 floor brokers & traders were indicted for "point shaving." They would manipulate the spreads just enough to keep you from getting traded until they were ready to reverse then they would trade you at a wider spread and make that extra too. It's just as dirty a business as OTCBB IMO. Maybe things have changed. Will be very cautious this time. Max
