Judy, . With Interquote you can cut and paste.. you can also enter a formula into Interquote (it is works similar to a spreadsheet) Pc Quote has lots of studies and charts.. but you can not cut and paste.. you have to print to a file.. and I could only get it to print a bmp file.. (I emailed to you....) NO responses... but does anyone have a real time quote system they are in love with?????? don't answer this question Kevin! As to the timing of money flow trading... we would have to get Kevin to divulge a little more.. re: his timing on INTC puts... eventually the money flow and stock price meet... Kevin... would you guestimate.. how often this happens? every day once a week... eventually?? MU did turn today and only INTC was more Neg so you have to use other tools that taken all together give you the "signal" As far as any short-term trades? the short answer.. everything from two minute trades to 6 month trades...(unfortunately those longer trades have turned out to be investments and I don't mean the buy AMD at 15 type. a week ago I got three points on INTCW, Friday 1 1/4pts ESOL, Monday 2pts ESOL, bought a few shares of MDCO today.... my problem.. and one I have been discussing with Nancy recently.. is that I have been too early on shorting and puts... I got DELL and Gate puts about a week too early, and MO 3 days too early... perhaps that is a good psychological thing about Kevin's system.. he gets paid to make the trade... and if it goes against him for a bit.. he has a greater ability to handle the pressure. unlike me that has spent money to make the trade... although I do understand the risk and rewards of short calls and puts.. vs long calls and puts... As I was explaining to someone tonite I was telling the story of shorting/standing at the waters edge... If you were to time a short perfectly.. it would get your toes wet , you short and thats it.. you watch it retreat.. are we perfect?? no... so.. the water comes to your ankles.. or your knees.... .... the buy and hold or longs or sane people or ??? assume the water will keep coming, it will go over your head... but you "know" it will not... it will fall back.. and you win.... the problem is as the water rises.. the pain (potential loss) gets greater with MO last week.. the water got to my ankles and I got out... had I stayed in.. it would have got to my waist...but it turned around and fell a long ways away... how confident am I when it gets to my waist that it will not go over my head??? not as confident as some and I have lost money (more than I care to say) because of it.. I understand that you and Dee and Clint are good about legging into a trade...being that no one has a crystal ball and you get into a position in stages.. is that a fair statement? john
