Re: I would love to be able to do it, but I'm sceptical about doing it consistently.

Jacob,
I too am skeptical anyone can trade successfully consistently. I am the first to admit I am a terrible trader, probably the world's worst and this is no exaggeration. However, with a holding like AMAT, one almost is forced to do some short-term trading. I say this because (1) if I go long and am stuck with the stock I would not mind beacuse of the company's unique position in a segment pivotal to the 21st century as we will know it(2) its volatility allows the 5-6 point gains here and there and (3)and over the long run you can be certain of the trend AMAT will take-UP!

Regards,

brian
