I am away next week so won't be trading but am leaving remaining positions in place. Back 18th October.

8 Oct Sold Cotton Dec at 4740 £3 a point. Position now closed. Loss £312. This turned out as a bad trade. Vantagepoint showed a return to down trend after yesterday's close. This proves the value of only trading when the PTMDiff values indicate a consistent trend on the previous four trading...

The system did not show "only going short at 8000". Vantagepoint indicated a change of direction of market trend after 1Oct close from up to down. I was trying to get 8000 yesterday but didn't get it. As long as the overall trend continues down I will add to the position if the opportunity...

My 12 day rule is in place for two reasons: 1. Reduces (but obviously cannot totally eliminate) the effect of a "choppy" period for the index/commodity. 2. Using Vantagepoint you "miss" the initial profit from a change of direction. eg (1). VP today shows a change of trend direction (up)...

I have been using Vantagepoint for several months and find it certainly pays foir itself if you follow a few simple rules I have learned by experience. 1. Ignore the predicted high and low figures - widely off the mark. 2. Accept the trend change of direction as gospel if the following...
