Long 890.50 with 20. Initial stop 773.00



---Staying long here with the same stop. Currently, the market has experienced no reversal signals and has exhibited only consolidation type action prior to a 3 day weekend. I look for the market to pick up with upside action again soon, perhaps as early as today, but I would not be surprised to see it happen next week. Ishmael)
--Staying long here this Fri 5/29. Same stop. I see no reason to sell just yet.
---Staying long here with the 20. Same stop
---Staying long here with the 20. Same stop
--Staying long here with the same stop. I see no reason yet to get out.
--Exited the entire position at 954.00 for a gain of 63.5 pts per contract. I will look later today or Sun/Mon to roll into September contract. I will let you know when I do.

--20 contracts @ 63.5 equals 1270 total pts or $63,500 minus 20 commissions-- Ishmael

Staying out for right now. Market should continue lower after this minor buy signal resolves itself. It will be interesting to see what happens at the 925 area. We will most likely go through that area and have a fairly significant pullback. I continue to be bearish long term. Ishmael
