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.

8:45-9:27 a.m.

Tons of faxes start to roll in. Matches this info with
opinions he's written the night before and taped to his quote
machine.

9:28 a.m.

Reviews his checklist which is laminated and taped to
the right hand corner of his desk. One item: "Is the MTO (Magic T Oscillator) in positive or negative
mode?"

9:29 a.m.

On the phone to the S&P pit. Gets violent if this
sacred time is violated.

9:30 am-12:30
p.m

Stock market opens. Trades, keeps track of trades and
looks for patterns. "Pattern
recognition," he says, "is
my karma."

12:30-1:00 p.m.

Orders a number four to go from Seaside Superette.
Posts charts at his desk while eating his number four.

1:00-4:00
p.m.

More trading, keeping track of trading and looking for
patterns.
