Hi Day Traders,

It has been my experience that from the roll over
to the September contract the second Thursday in
June until July 4th, it tends to be very thin
trading. A lot of traders are vacationing and it
can make for very difficult trading. Floor traders
often seem to be waiting for outside paper (orders)
to come in and then they take it the other way;
especially small orders. I find it best just to
take some time off too. 

Other difficult times are the week before and after
Christmas and any afternoon before a holiday. 

One of the best tips I can give you is to follow my
rule never to trade the afternoon before a holiday.

Yours for success,
Ellery Coleman
