    My 2 cents. Pros: If you have skills to trade no money(like me) , its a way to get back into the game. so thanks for providing me that option. The entry fee is pretty low.Even if you give 3-4 combines will not cost you a lot. the data feed alone /month may cost around 100$(not 100% sure...

    Was it so obvious to you Nodoji? i guess 94.50 would have been a good long but i can only say that on hindsight. have committed this one price action to memory , since i often rely on trend days to make money and cant have it the other way around. How much $$ did you make on this

    Lost around 800$. Mostly in the first move up in crude, after the open outcry. Even though price action was a bit on the buy side, i kept hitting shorts thinking it would be a range. Anyways going to take the combine from tomorrow , lets see how that goes.
