Pabst's Blue Ribbon Trades

Discussion in 'Journals' started by Pa(b)st Prime, Mar 29, 2007.

  1. Pabst,

    A few pages/days ago, you were talking about some ATR calculations and Turtles MM techniques.

    Are you willing to post those thoughts and numbers?

  5. Murray: I agree. You guys in Memphis should know. :p

    IMHO, those lows in the high 40's were a LT bottom. Since I don't THINK CT will get back down there, I'm trying to buy in the lower end of congestion. CT reminds me of Corn before the October breakout. I bought Corn a bit late in the game and still made a ton (I milked some calls for $6,000 each.) :)

    Until I'm proven completely wrong I'll continue a long campaign in Corn, Beans and Cotton. For that matter I seek to buy most any commodity on a pullback.

    I'm going to live or die under the assumption that commodity prices are in the midst of a perma re-value to the upside. I also think that long bond rates are going to increase and that stocks are going to put in place a LT high sometime in the next 4 months.

    EDIT: That being said I'm working a stop under the market to sell my 5 July CT. I'm long them from 53.37.

    Still long 10 SK, 10 CN, 5 CK, short 5 SK 780p's, and short 10 ZB.

    That goodness for the CBOT's reasonable margin policy. This is why I shy away from index trading!

    S 5 CT N@ 53.66 net profit of $725. I'll try to buy it back lower.

  7. Snowing here in Chicago, isn't that bad for corn meaning bullish? I see it is down today.

  8. I guess the forward thinking market presumes Chi-town will be snowless by May. Perhaps not, lol.

    BTW: Everytime I see your screen name I think of King's Gyros at Milwaukee Av and Foster. :)
