Traders Helping Traders Big Weekend Edition

The Test Drive Version of the Big Weekend Edition is posted at http://www.supportandresistance.com/testdrive.html

The Subscribers got these on Sunday...Test Drivers get 'em somewhat after the fact!

I hope that you are enjoying our profitable trading picks, as we invest enormous amount of hours in market research and analysis. I wanted to drop a quick email to remind you about the new VIP trading program we've just launched.

You see, ever since I began publishing my ezine and nightly updates many experienced traders have asked me to help them with their trades. Actually, the plain truth is that they just wanted me to trade their accounts for them!

But since I'm not a licensed broker with a brokerage, we would need to fill out a mountain of paperwork to allow me to trade for you...until now that is, which is why I'm writing to you.

Here's your chance to participate in a new trading program that I announced a week ago http://www.supportandresistance.com/VIPsubscribe.html.

You see, I have set up a special program with a broker who understands my methodology and program to initiate my hand picked trades for you http://www.supportandresistance.com/VIPsubscribe.html .

As a member of this VIP Trading Club you would be alerted to trades that I consider to have the greatest potential; however you would retain total control over your account.

It would be up to you to decide if you wanted to participate in the recommended trade, or to pass and wait for the next opportunity. If you decided to take the trade however, I would look after everything for you, from entry, through managing stops to final exit of the trade. All communications and confirmations of trades will be done with you directly.

Nothing for you to worry about! It would be like trading on autopilot. I am sure that you are intelligent enough to realize that this is not a promise to make you profits, rather I will make my best effort to try and figure market direction based on my charting and trading experience. Only risk capital should be invested.

Unfortunately, I can only make this offer available to a limited number of members so if you're interested in participating go to http://www.supportandresistance.com/VIPsubscribe.html to become a member and take advantage of this amazing trading opportunity. I look forward to having you on my VIP team.

Sincerely yours,
Erich

==================================================
1: MAY CORN
==================================================
CK5 O=223 1/4 HI=224 1/2 LO=221 1/2 CL=223 1/2

Corn continued lower as we hoped today. The market is
trading below the 225 resistance, which would be a good
entry line for tomorrow, but I'd really like to see
prices find support at 218-ish before recovering.
==================================================
2: MAY COTTON
==================================================
CTK5 O=5280 HI=5325 LO=5085 CL=5133

A definite "why-didn't-I-short-cotton-like-I-wanted-to"
day. Prices fell hard through support today and we're
now very close to officially being a bear trend. Cotton
can be a tricky market and it's not unusual to see two
big days in a row, either up or down. However tomorrow
is Friday so I think I'll just sit on my hands and hope
for a bounce.
==================================================
3: MAY BEAN OIL
==================================================
BOK5 O=2417 HI=2437 LO=2332 CL=2434

@#%! Bean Oil! Stupid market gave us a nice breakout
today before backing up and whipsawing us out of the
trade. I think the part that really bothers me is that
I "never" take a countertrend trade...yet that's exactly
what I tried to do and ended up paying the consequences.

Licking my wounds for tomorrow.
==================================================
4: ARPIL LIVE CATTLE
==================================================
LCJ5 O=89.80 HI=89.80 LO=88.05 CL=88.475

I entertained suggesting trying to sell cattle from
the high; however it is always a riskier trade than
waiting for the market to take out substantial resistance
which is what this market did today anyway.

Caught a bit of the luck-o-the-Irish as prices made a
run at our stops after finding the order, but didn't
rally high enough to find them.

Can't really move the stops just yet. Keep your fingers
and toes crossed that prices continue lower tomorrow
without ranging too high.
==================================================
5: MAY COCOA
==================================================
CCK5 O=1840 HI=1850 LO=1815 CL=1830

Cocoa didn't look particularly strong today as prices
got near the weekly 50%. Prices flinched a bit at the
1850 area so we might expect a lower session tomorrow.

For those of you with nerves of steel, bring exit stops
to breakeven, otherwise bring them a below today's close
to try and lock in at least a bit of profit.
==================================================
6: MAY WHEAT
==================================================
WK5 O=360 HI=368 LO=355 1/2 CL=366 1/2

I hate it when the market sets up like this for a Friday.
Wheat rallied hard off support today and if you look at
an intraday chart the rally came in the dying minutes of
trading, so it is likely to continue tomorrow as well.

I don't like initiating a position on Friday's as it adds
to the overall risk of the trade. Besides prices are right
up against the weekly 62% retracement line. All in all I
don't think I like the odds and I'll stand aside and hope
the wheat traders are too hung over from St. Patrick's Day
to do too much.
==================================================
7: JUNE CANADIAN DOLLAR
==================================================
CDM5 O=8301 HI=8356 LO=8274 CL=8321

The 8356 resistance line held beautifully today keeping
us out of a potentially bad trade. As with other Friday
trades I'm not crazy about getting into a CD trade this
close to the weekend; however if rates continue higher I
want to be there to take advantage of it.

 *BUY June Canadian Dollar at 8357
 *Stop 8339
 *Approximate Risk Exposure: $180 per contract
 *Profit Target: 8444
 *Approximate Profit Potential: $870 per contract
 *RRR: 4 1/2:1
 *Degree of Risk: HIGH
==================================================
8: MAY SILVER
==================================================
SIK5 O=745.2 HI=749.5 LO=734 CL=740.7

Resistance on silver's high held the market down today
as prices traded within the previous day's ranges. I'll
continue to look to buy this market on a breakout above
resistance tomorrow, but I'll also look to sell it if
prices break support.

 *BUY May Silver at 754.5
 *Stop 748.5
 *Approximate Risk Exposure: $300 per contract
 *Profit Target: 785.5
 *Approximate Profit Potential: $1550 per contract
 *RRR: 5:1
 *Degree of Risk: HIGH

OR

 *SELL May Silver at 729.5
 *Stop 735
 *Approximate Risk Exposure: $275 per contract
 *Profit Target: 711.5
 *Approximate Profit Potential: $900 per contract
 *RRR: 3:1
 *Degree of Risk: HIGH
==================================================
9: DECEMBER EURODOLLAR
==================================================
EDZ5 O=95.885 HI=95.92 LO=95.86 CL=95.87

The ED backed away from support today as rates managed
a bit of a rally. You could sell below today's low;
however I'll stick with the original plan for tomorrow.

Ideally we will see the market continue higher to the
95.96 resistance from where I'd be much more comfortable
selling the market short.

 *SELL December Eurodollar at 95.81
 *Stop 95.8525
 *Approximate Risk Exposure: $106 per contract
 *Profit Target: 95.66
 *Approximate Profit Potential: $375 per contract
 *RRR: 3:1
 *Degree of Risk: Moderate
==================================================
10: WILD CARD - MAY BEAN MEAL
==================================================
SMK5 O=198.8 HI=199 LO=192 CL=196.8

Sold Bean Meal today as prices made a nice break through
support, unfortunately the market backed up on us before
closing and is sitting right near our entry.

You could leave stops where they are for tomorrow, which
is a clear indication we were wrong about the market, or
you could bring them just above the 198 price to keep
your risk to an absolute minimum.
