7:30-7:40 a.m.

Breakfast. Bowl of Kellogg's Oat Bran, a glass of
Blood's fresh-squeezed orange juice, and two pieces of
Pepperidge Farm whole wheat toast. Says he eats to loosen up,
not to fill up. Reads the "Sports" section of the New York Times while breakfasting.

7:40-8:00 a.m.

At his desk collating all the faxes he's received while
sleeping. Gets 30 page account from Bear Stearns, his clearing
firm, listing the P&L of all his trades from the previous
day. Also, gets sheets from his different commodity brokers.
Makes sure everything is just right so he can begin each new
day with a fresh start.

8:10-8:15 a.m.

Cleans out his plumbing again. According to Grampa,
he's now ready to start his day.

8:15-8:20 a.m.

Calls his bond brokers and gets support and resistance
levels for bonds for the day. Does plethora of mathematical
calculations.

8:20-8:30 a.m.

Trades some bonds because it's a good way to loosen up.
Says most important news on bonds seems to come from
government at 8:30 on Friday mornings. Resents this because if
those announcements were made earlier in the week, he and his
fellow senior citizens would still be semi-fresh. (Maybe it
would help if he would clean out his plumbing a third
time on Friday mornings?)

8:30-8:45 a.m.

Might trade more bonds. Might not. Never trades when
there's this thing the futures exchanges calls a "fast
market" which is signaled by an "F" popping up
on the screen of one of his machines.
