Notes:
These are actual published CPM Group Trade Recommendations.
The prices are based on Comex nearby active futures contract prices.
The actions of investors based on these Trade Recommendations are not known to CPM.
Thus, all of these Outcomes and Potential Profits and Losses are HYPOTHETICAL.
If a target price is reached during the time frame, the position is calculated either at the time a new Recommendation is issued or at the day’s close.
If a target price is not reached, then the settlement price on the last day of the target range isused as the outcome prices at end of trading time period.
Outcome time stamp is estimated and applied from a 8am to 5pm basis, NY time.
These are static, mechanical recommendations. CPM and other investor groups would trade
within the five days, possibly closing out positions if they were profitable before the end of the targeted time frame.
