Hi Jack, Thanks. You've mentioned The Money Spinner before, but I've never found a copy. Looks like another trip to Amazon.com is in order!

It took a while to figure out how to calculate those next buys and sells based upon minimums. In the end the formulae turned out to be much more simple than I'd anticipated. Bob Norman uses them in his Newport program and they were in my very early (circa 1987) DOS Lotus 123 spreadsheet as well. I didn't realize that someone else had followed the same path about 5 years earlier!! Interesting.

After American Century Funds brought out Limit Orders good for 90 days, I figured other fund families would follow. However, as far as I know Am. Century is still unique that way. For stocks, the GTC orders are simple and effective - even if I'm playing "cars" or off doing some other form of "hookie."

Speaking of Hookie, I'm going out to play 9 holes of golf some time this week. My neighbor likes to play "Wet Shoe Golf" early in the AM. This will be the first time I've played in about 5 years. Since my neck surgery I'm finding I can do all sorts of things I'd just about given up! Even took the clubs in for new grips the other day!

If it goes well, you folks might just be on your own here!!!

Best regards, Tom
PS: Looks like AMAZON.COM will hunt for the book for me, but it's out of print. I'll let you know if I get lucky.
