Close Only Charts?
Hello
Can anyone point me in the direction where I can locate "Close Price Only" charts for futures?
I currently use Futures Source for my charts and they do not appear to offer these charts.
Thank You

Corn at 412 now...
Went to 396 on Friday. Just when the market is "too high" it goes higher.

Paul Tudor Jones and 1987 crash
I re-read Market Wizards for the 88th time and observed that Paul Tudor Jones claimed to have gone big T-Bonds when he and Peter Borish "saw" the coming 1987 stock market crash. However, unless I am missing something, a check of historical T-Bond charts for 1987-1988 do not show any huge u...

Stan I use a 10/20 EMA cross for both long and short, coupled with breakout from a trading range. For example, Copper is in a trading range and I would not execute a trade based on 10/20 EMA cross right now, not until it breaks out from consolidation. I also prefer to have some fundamentals to suppo...

LB is a strong short under almost any sort of system swing, medium-term trend-following, long-term trend-following, etc. It may be a bit oversold to initiate a new position for some of the shorter-term systems but I don't know of any where you'd exit after Friday's performance except for a profit t...

bill, you seem to be entering the trade when everybody is already getting out of it, make some research on Lumber's seasonal tendancies(on 20 years data at least), it usually rallies from October untill April ( cos folks start buying during the winter season to heat their homes, and building houses...

billpritjr, hope you recouped some of your losses by shorting TYZ06 on Monday's close and exiting the position on today's close :wink: well that time frame is too short for me. I am more of a multi-week to month trader, relying on EMA's to time entry and exit. But if it worked for you, great! Short...

billpritjr, why trade only one market? What about energies, metals, grains? I am also short Lumber right now, made some $$$ on it, both the chart and the fundamentals (housing bubble, interest rate hikes, increased foreclosures, etc) put me in Lumber. Waiting on OPEC sanctions on Iran, that plus th...
