Back on July 6

Filed in Daily Digest (Everyone) | Read Article

I have been out of the office for the past week and will be back on Monday, July 6.

Next week will focus on cleanup such as answering questions regarding trading and hedging, updating InVivo.Analytics for eSignal with a workaround, and the weekly strategy session.

The rest of the summer will be spent revisiting the subject of trading, especially for Club Members.
