To Ruth Rodger I owe an immense debt of gratitude. Her perceptive insights
and constructive criticism have been invaluable in developing profitable techniques
for trading commodity futures, and her contributions to my thinking continue
to be much appreciated.
I am grateful to Howard Arrington, Kimball Hansen and the staff at Ensign
Software for providing charting software without which I cannot envision how the
methodology in this book could have been developed—it could not have been
done on the basis of the paper charts and hand-calculated moving averages which
I used when I started trading futures.
