On the open and after the first three hours of trading it sure looked like our forecast from Friday of a trending market to the down side was going right. However on VERY light volume in the cash market the posture of the limited number of players was to trade sideways to up, in the last two hours of the session. Today it was told that this was the lightest trading day on the Nasdaq and the second lightest on NYSC. Where do we go from here? Frankly this one is a whole lot tougher to make a call than in the past. But lets look at the technical picture and see wants painting. First the Wave traders needed to take out 1265.00 last week. Since there bias on the market was that it failed, then the new trend was down to long term support. How we see it at least for the moment. Looking strictly at a old fashion technical forecast methodology. Today we had a conformation of a inverted head and shoulder with the right shoulder breaking out to the long side. This formation was started 5/30 and completed today. Along with this a classic "W" formation. The defined high of 1319.00 on a channel breakout added credence to what we "think" might be more upside momentum. And yes since our system did make a trend change to the long side we wanted to see from end of day data what may of confirmed the move. For those of you who know me and we have spoken before. Then its no surprise for me to reiterate my (montra) about trading systems that are available to the retail public. Since I was introduced to "SYSTEM TRADING" back in 1994.00 and have never looked back I more convinced that this is the only way to trade the futures markets for long term success. However I also feel very strong that if anything is good in a computerized non subjective trading program and that if its going to have any real long term life to it, (then why would any one sell it?) The fact is from my perspective that anything with real value is kept propritiary or its under management just as our system is. I found this section in the June edition of Futures magizine, go to page #52 in the middle of the page is a obsevation from them on tracking systems. And I quote "ALMOST ALL SUCCESSFUL SYSTEMS THAT WE TRACK ARE LONGERTERM TREND FOLLOWERS OR EXTREMELY SHORT-TERM STOCK INDEX TRADERS. (THE CO- NSISTENT SHORT-TERM SWING SYSTEM HAS YET TO BE DEVELOPED.) Un quote. Well folks the fact is yes it has been developed its just not for sale? I guess traders will just half to settle for being part of a managed acct with us and make some $$$ Here is a example of a client trading two full S/P contracts for the Month of May. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DISCRETIONARY REGULATED-$ 05/02/01 BUY 2 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 1271.00 -------- TRNS FEES 61.74 05/02/01 P&S 1 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 6,575.00 05/03/01 BUY 1 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 1262.30 -------- TRNS FEES 30.87 05/03/01 SELL 2 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 1255.50 -------- TRNS FEES 61.74 05/03/01 SELL 2 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 1259.00 -------- TRNS FEES 61.74 05/03/01 W/T IN MGN DEP BY W/T 100,000.00 05/03/01 P&S 1 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 1,700.00 05/03/01 P&S 1 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 3,875.00 05/04/01 BUY 4 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 1266.00 -------- TRNS FEES 123.48 05/04/01 P&S 2 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 3,500.00 05/07/01 SELL 2 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 1265.50 -------- TRNS FEES 61.74 05/07/01 SELL 2 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 1266.00 -------- TRNS FEES 61.74 05/07/01 P&S 2 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX .00 05/08/01 BUY 4 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 1264.50 -------- TRNS FEES 123.48 05/08/01 P&S 2 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 500.00 05/11/01 SELL 4 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 1248.50 -------- TRNS FEES 123.48 05/11/01 P&S 2 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 8,000.00 05/14/01 BUY 4 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 1250.00 -------- TRNS FEES 123.48 05/14/01 P&S 2 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 750.00 05/17/01 SELL 4 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 1292.20 -------- TRNS FEES 123.48 05/17/01 P&S 2 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 21,100.00 05/21/01 BUY 4 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 1301.50 -------- TRNS FEES 123.48 05/21/01 P&S 2 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 4,650.00 05/22/01 SELL 4 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 1310.00 -------- TRNS FEES 123.48 05/22/01 P&S 2 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 4,250.00 05/24/01 BUY 4 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 1289.80 -------- TRNS FEES 123.48 05/24/01 P&S 2 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 10,100.00 05/25/01 SELL 4 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 1280.50 -------- TRNS FEES 123.48 05/25/01 GVP FEE APR CME RB&H G/UP 3.00 05/25/01 P&S 2 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 4,650.00 05/31/01 BUY 4 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 1257.50 -------- TRNS FEES 123.48 05/31/01 P&S 2 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 11,500.00 * * * * * OPEN POSITIONS * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * OPEN POSITIONS * * * * * 05/31/01 2 JUN 1 IOM S&P INDEX 1257.50 50.00 IOM 2* SETTLE 1257.40 OPEN EQUITY 50.00* ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- R E F C O, I N C.

And both technical and cash data is calculated inorder to confirm trend changes.We have our computer models take a look back every hour on the half hour to re check if any trend changes have been violated regardless of where the futures are. What most of the retail public has is no idea that infact all the large firms both equity's and futures have there own (platforms) and there own (systems). Its been proven that as long as one has a sound trading methodology that is coded and it can be looked and judged over long time frames, this is the ONLY way to make gains that can show year after year. Human intervention has created more losses in the futures markets than I care to think of. It never fails that I talk to traders every day who pound there chest on what they did "today" but whats more important is to look at what one has done over lets say a three year time frame. This is the secret for long term success. On the E-mail that has been sent out in the last few weeks on the new market starting 8/21/2001 "Single Stock futures" This will be very exciting for us due to the fact that we will be one of the first firms in the country to offer this new market in a Managed program with the underlying trading methodology stemming from computer based models. The large firms will have access to this market first then the retail public will begin 12/21/2001. As long as there are no problems that surface with the CFTC and SEC then Dec looks good. For those of you who are not aware of the back ground of our programmers they have a history in the Futures and Equity side of the industry from institutional firms that are all computer based with there own trading programs. Again for those traders who are not aware of this market we will be able to trade futures on single stock issues. For example IBM will have a contract that will have 100 shares in a contract. And that will have a life of 90 days just like the current four trading contract months per year. For more details on this market see details below. CBOE Create Joint Venture on Single-Stock Futures World's Two Largest Equity Derivatives Exchanges to Create For-Profit Company CBOT to Join With Limited Stake CHICAGO, May 14, 2001 - The world's largest options exchange and the largest futures exchange in the U.S. are teaming up to introduce a highly anticipated new product - single-stock futures contracts. The Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) and Chicago Mercantile Exchange Inc. (CME) today signed a letter of intent to create a joint venture to introduce single-stock futures, following approval by the boards of directors of both exchanges. The Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) has also agreed to participate in the joint venture with a limited stake. Legislation signed into law in December will allow the introduction of single-stock futures by U.S. financial exchanges later this year, after an 18-year prohibition on the products. "Today's announcement highlights the innovation and entrepreneurial spirit among Chicago's exchanges," said CBOE Chairman and Chief Executive Officer William Brodsky. "This exciting new initiative combines the best of securities and futures trading. Our willingness to work together on this venture will ensure that Chicago remains the world's center in derivatives trading and risk management." "The creation of this joint venture recognizes the tremendous synergies of CME and CBOE, making us a formidable competitor in the global marketplace for single-stock futures," said CME Chairman Scott Gordon. "Our complementary customer bases of retail and institutional investors will benefit from the efforts of all three Chicago exchanges to establish deep pools of liquidity in these products." "I am enthused that Chicago's exchanges have worked so well together to understand and address our customers' needs and our members' concerns," said CBOE Vice Chairman Mark Duffy. "We have designed a product that, I believe, will appeal to our customers, and a business structure that will provide great benefit to our members." "Our largest customers have emphasized the importance of collaboration between the CBOE and CME to combine the capabilities, distribution and connectivity of the futures and securities worlds," said CME President and Chief Executive Officer Jim McNulty. "This alliance should also provide the highest level of capital efficiency for our customers who trade in both futures and options." "The CBOT is pleased to work with the leadership of CBOE and CME in this initiative to bring this exciting new product to our markets," said Nicholas Neubauer Chairman of the Chicago Board of Trade. "The involvement of our members and the access to our customers will make important contributions to the success of this venture." The joint venture will be a for-profit company, will have its own management and board, and will be separately organized as a regulated exchange. Single-stock futures will be traded electronically, and orders may be entered through both the new CBOEdirectTM electronic platform and CME's GLOBEX?2 electronic trading system. CME and CBOE officials said they are engaged in negotiations with the Options Clearing Corporation (OCC), which clears all CBOE transactions, to clear the new products. McNulty said the negotiations contemplate CME becoming a special clearing member of OCC to provide access for CME clearing members who are not members of the OCC. The exchanges anticipate contracting with Designated Primary Market-Makers (DPMs) in these products and expect that the board appointed to govern the joint venture will determine the eligibility criteria, selection process, rights, privileges and duration of such arrangements. Single-stock futures are expected to bring new efficiencies to securities trading, securities lending and corporate hedging activities. CME and CBOE officials said they also expect to develop rules that would accommodate block trading and exchange-for-physicals (EFPs). The Chicago Board Options Exchange created and launched the first listed options on stocks in 1973 and the first index options in 1982. Today, CBOE lists options on more than 1,500 stocks and on over 40 indexes, such as the S&P 500, the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM, the Russell 2000, the Nasdaq-100, and the S&P 100. It remains the world's largest and most successful options marketplace. Chicago Mercantile Exchange Inc. launched the first successful stock index futures contracts on the S&P 500 in 1982. Today, CME trades futures and futures options on indexes including the S&P 500, Nasdaq-100, S&P MidCap 400, Russell 2000, FORTUNE e-50? , S&P/BARRA Growth and Value Indexes, and Nikkei 225, as well as its electronically traded E-mini S&P 500 and E-mini Nasdaq-100 contracts - the fastest growing products in the exchange's history. CME also trades interest rate, foreign currency and agricultural commodity products. On November 13, 2000, CME demutualized and became a for-profit, shareholder-owned corporation. CBOE is regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). CME is regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).
