Commodity Pick Report
Morning Call: November 6, 2009
“The money’s made in the sitting and the waiting, not the trading.” – Jesse Livermore
===============
Welcome to Commodity Pick Report!
Commodity Pick Report gives you my best hand picked trades for each week. The trades below are classified according to their probability of success, with low risk trades having the greatest probability of working out and high risk trades the least regardless of risk amounts.
There are also trade management suggestions for open positions. Profit targets are offered for your consideration but unless specified trades will be managed according to the commentary. I would advise you to adjust recommendations to suit your own circumstances.
Remember that making money in trading does not require you to take numerous trades; rather the best way to make money is to take multiple contracts on the most promising trades. All trade recommendations are written for single contracts; however you might consider trading multiple contracts whenever your account, and risk tolerance allow.
Note: CPR trades do not account for slippage; therefore your actual fills might be slightly different than those reported here.
Here’s to your success!

RISK DISCLOSURE!
Trading commodity Futures and options on futures involves significant risk. You must consult licensed professionals or your own advisors before trading to determine if it is suitable for you.
Nothing contained herein is a solicitation to trade or a recommendation of a specific trade. You must consult your broker or advisor before making any trade to ensure current prices, margin requirements and other factors determinant to suitability.
By reading this publication you agree to make no trade relying in whole or in part on the comments of the writers. You agree before doing any trade contained herein to consult your charts and advisors to verify all information and make your own decision.
Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.
In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading.
For example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results.
There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all of which can adversely affect actual trading results.
