IBM & MSFT

Are you emulating Brinker with no stops?

10/16/2002 Short IBM 65.17

this is down $22 for about 34%!

Ouch!!!

MSFT is down double digits too, but not that bad...

Short MSFT 48.25

Since Al is a model for trading, why didn't you choose to use protective stop losses? Most traders are often wrong and that is why they have stops. Get a few more right than wrong and let the right ones run and they have their profits. Are you investing rather than trading where you think these are over valued? I remember a buddy shorting YAHOO at $40 and he was right, just he was a few years too early and he got creamed.
