Long-Term Trading With Swiss Francs by Andre Zupans

Using Paper And Pencil (Hey, It Still Works!) Long-Term Trading With Swiss Francs Didn’t you love that little cotton trade we showed you back in May 2000? Want to try again with Swiss francs? Here’s your chance. by Andre Zupans In the May 2000 STOCKS & COMMODITIES, I presented a long-term commodity trading technique. At that time, cotton offered a great long-term trading setup. A weekly point & figure close of 5500 in January 2000 had issued a buy signal. The 5500 calls six months out were bought at about 3.00, or $1,500 per call. In March, cotton reached about 6300, sending the calls to around 9.00, or $4,500 per call (Figure 1). Note the 5500 breakout. A sharp move to over the 6300 level produced a winning trade. My conclusion was that a long-lasting bull move in cotton was likely.
