Hi Rich, I ran a historical analysis in Automatic Investor on the Nasdaq Biotechnology Index between 1/1/96 & 12/31/00. The Best SAFE I got was at 5-5. I also tried Keith's idea of a minimum trade of $1,000 - 500 was better. Actually the range of returns for all the variations I tried over the 5 year period was: 5-5 = 390% (500 min) 5-5 = 368 (1,000 min) all others with 500 min & O shares min 10-10 = 350% 25-0 = 360% 65-10 = 333% 65-0 = 346% 5-0 = 378% As you can see there is not a lot of difference over such a long period. I will probably go with 5-5/500 & do vealies. Larry M
