SECTION I: STOCKS

1) STOCK NEWS *****

It's been more than a week since my last letter. I've made a couple of

trades during the holidays but didn't send out any news. Now the holidays

are over I'll have more time to write.

Stay tuned, in a few weeks I'll be announcing my 2003 results. Off the top

of my head I suspect my year end results are high above the 100% gain mark,

possibly even as high as 175%.

But I'll have to put in several hours of work to figure it out. After all I

did make an enormous amount of trades.

I'll be changing brokerage firms soon. The new one has many features my old

one does not. Such as having an SMA with a margin account, check writing

privilage with ATM card. I'm just going gaga over their services. I hope

they hold up to my standards.

I trade almost everything on margin and margin fees are very important to

me. Here is the link to Ameritrade margin rates

http://www.ameritrade.com/services/index.html?startpage=rates_fees.fhtml

Now take a look at the margin rates of my new brokerage firm.

http://www.investrade.com/margin_rates.asp

http://www.investrade.com/fees_commissions.htm

http://www.investrade.com/cash_management.htm

They even have email confirmations.

Please note I do not nor have I ever used ameritrade.

20% of investors have margin accounts and 80% have cash only accounts. If

you want to make money I strongly suggest getting a margin account.

Another one of my reccamendations would be http://www.choicetrade.com

choice trade is 4.7% interest regardless of balance amount.

If the market keeps going up for January we would then have a January

Effect. The January Effect is an idicator used by investors to gage the rest

of the year. If on 31 January the Dow is up so is the rest of the year.

Ever since the year the Dow Jones has been measuring the markets ANY year

that ends with a 5 ie. 1915, 1975, 2005, 1965 is an up year for the Dow

Jones.

What is SMA?

Per the Federal Reserve's Regulation T, a special memorandum account (SMA)

may be maintained in conjunction with a margin account. SMA is a separate

memo balance maintained by many brokers. If at the close of a trading day

the equity in your account exceeds 50% (the Regulation T initial margin

requirement) then you have a so-ed "Reg T Excess" in your account, and

SMA is created for that amount. Once SMA is created, it remains until it is

used for a purchase (or short sale) or is withdrawn from the account. This

means that even if your margin account falls below the 50% level due to

market depreciation, your SMA balance will remain unchanged and is preserved

and can be used to withdraw cash or to increase buying power up to the house

excess (available cash above our minimum maintenance level) amount in your

account.

How is buying power calculated?

Buying power is the amount available to purchase or short sell stocks

without depositing additional funds. Buying power is calculated by taking

the lower of your SMA or house excess (available cash for withdrawal from

your account) and dividing it by .50. Buying power is based on the type of

security a customer wishes to purchase. Since requirements differ, your

broker calculates buying power using a standard initial margin requirements

of 50% for marginable stocks, which includes open buy orders. Buying power

should not be used for non-marginable stocks or stocks with initial or

maintenance requirements higher then 50%, otherwise a margin could be

realized for the deficiency. For example, if you have $10,000 in available

cash, the buying power in your account is $20,000 and you can purchase

$20,000 of marginable stock with a 50% requirement. If you were to purchase

a non-marginable stock with a 100% requirement you could only purchase stock

worth $10,000 ($10,000 available cash divided by 1). If you were to purchase

a marginable stock with a 60% requirement you could only purchase for

$16,667 ($10,000 available cash divided by .60). Please also note that you

may incur an immediate margin depending upon the equity in your account

if you short sell a stock where your brokers $5.00 per share maintenance

requirement is greater then the initial 50% requirement. For example, if you

sold short 100 shares of a stock at $8.00 per share, the initial margin

requirement would be 50% of $8,000 or $4,000. However, the maintenance

requirement for this short position is $5,000. If your account does not

maintain sufficient equity to cover this greater requirement, you will

receive a margin maintenance .

For those who fully understand SMA and how it works.... When your stocks go

up and you have an SMA (extra usable cash) make a withdrawl and go out and

buy a house. Why not? The interest is only 2 or 3% and there is NO time

limit when you have to pay it back. And in fact if your stocks keep going up

you don't EVER have to ever pay it back by means of adding new cash deposits

in your account because your stocks and SMA will cover it because they have

increaded in value.

SECTION II: COMMODITIES *****

1) COMMODITY NEWS *****

No news

2) COMMODITY Apis Bull Stock and Commodity Trading Education *****

I'm waitng for Soybean Oil to start going down. I think this will happen in

the next few weeks.

3) WHAT I HAVE UP FOR SALE *****

a) I have an order to sell MAY04 CORN 230 PUT @10 STOP to close my position.

4) MY CURRENT POSITIONS *****

COMMODITY DATE BOT CONTRACT OPTION PRICE BOT PRICE NOW % CHANGE

CORN 19 NOV 03 MAY 04 230 PUT 7 3^7 (44.642)

Corn quotes are in 1/8th's.

Here's the math (3*50) + (7/8*50) = $193.75

My mail program won't allow me have more columns to give you more details on

the matter. So I will tell you the corn option cost $350. If the price moves

to 8 then I made a $50 profit ($50 per point) and can sell it for $400. That

means I made 14.285% gain. I'm hoping it will go to 10 with in the next few

weeks. If sold at 10 it's value

would be $500 a $150 profit a 42.857% gain. I have a Put option meaning I

want the corn futures to go down in price. If I wanted the price of corn to

go up I would have bought a option instead of a Put option.

------------------------------------------------------

I don't list all the reasons I place orders to buy or sell. If I did I would

be writing a long time. If you'll notice I tend to repeat myself for the

reasons I'm buying, this should tell you these criterias are very important

to me, although I don't use them solely.
