Hi Trev and Nickola,

I started to follow both robots from 1Jul2011 and tried 100% mechanical but occasionally, I reduced the position by following Billy and Pascal's advice. And here's the PL% of my trade results,

IWM : -0.35%(last year)-2.18%(this year up to now) = -2.53%
GDX : -1.17%(last year)+(0%) (this year up to now)

Trev : I shared the same feeling as you, GDX take off without me.

I hope the future will be better with the recent improvement.

Cheers,
Ellis
