Joan: Do you trade via a dicount broker ? Like with these pennies I play I get up to 5000 shares for $12 commision and can go in and out for $24 round trip. Also on a lot of No Load Funds, I have NO COST going in or out, not even a service charge. It's limited to 3 trips ( per fund in 6mo )..then a $25 service charge kicks in, but with as many as there are I can get around that. I'm begining to notice with some of the funds that short term moves up&down, often exceed thoes of the S&P. They don't like short term buyers, or market timers, but going in via the broker my order is placed in a basket with others and I don't think they know if and when I go in and out as my shares are held by the broker. The disavantage is that with them you have to take closing price for the day, and can't trade based on interday prices, also you have to enter or exit before 2pm NY time. JIm The sell signals I got earlyer have eased up some. The Market don't know if it wants to go up or down, :-)
