Kudos to MMs

Glad to, I still have 3 units short - did I miss something?

Thanks. No we are short three units. Did I say other wise? Oops...

A useful column to add imo would be unrealized gain/loss.

NFV 1112.15. ANFV 1150.47. SPX 1141.54.

Nothing to do, just an update since this is a non-trivial move from the days first NFV number. It is far too early to tell, but when ANFV doesn't agree with NFV, it may signal that we should take "close" edges profit and not be stingy about a handle. On the other hand, when ANFV is moving in the same direction as NFV, maybe we should add units? Toooooo early, just some thoughts. The variations are almost infinite.

Could you perhaps elaborate a bit about ANFV and what makes it different? I'm loath to suddenly put confidence in it as far as trade decisions go without understanding it.

It simply adds another "field" to the equations. It is considerably more accurate than NFV, but that doesn't make it better than NFV. I strongly believe that everything in ANFV is critical to have - in fact there is perhaps one more input that I should have... The key is whether the market is keying off those inputs.

As I suggested, continue to use NFV and keep an eye on ANFV out of the corner of your eye to see if it is predictive.
