Eric,

It's a pleasure to be concentrating on earnings again after the long period bonds and interest rates have been moving things around.

Following up on your many observations about discount brokers vs. day trading brokers, I'm in the process of opening a CyberX account to add to my Brown account. I just can't find any acceptable way to sell short through a discounter and will use that account primarily for that purpose. Being the contrarian, I'm hitting the short side more heavily now just as the market is rallying. Go figure. Will also use the account for opening plays as I can't get fast fill reports during this period so I generally avoid it.

BTW made money every week from late April through last Friday mostly on the long side. As I've said before, my favorite environment for trading is mostly cloudy with a chance of storms. For me, trading a strongly trending bull has always been the challenge.

Alan
