Newsflash

For those who "research their trades" via historical daily charts, Research Director Nick Colley wants
to give you a taste of enhancements forthcoming to the Traders Desk
Reference (TDR) section of the MRCI web site.  Click on the following
address and you will be directed to the test section for Soybeans:

http://www.mrci.com/client/tdr/s/index.php

Remember this is only a test section, but it is intended to be the model
for all other futures.  You can use the "mouse-over" function, the table
includes seasonal patterns, weekly and monthly contract continuation
charts, and by clicking on the year in the "History Range" row, a table
will appear with each year in the data base.  Click again and find the
daily chart for that contract for that year.  Enjoy!
