I'll have to check those out. But since I'm not a good chart reader, I'm bad at picking highs and lows. This I need to learn. I have noticed when you follow one stock long enough you get a feel for its own unique following. If I'm buying a stock based on news of good earnings I look at how much it's run up in anticipation. No run up - true surprise; big run up - no surprise and any one day movement tends to reverse for a slide by profit takers. Seems like my best success has been in following this stragtegy - plus I like value stocks (low P/E, low debt to equity ratio, maybe strong cash position, low price to sales, etc.).

Other sayings like "even dead cats bounce" have seldom worked for me. I thought when SHIVA went from 80 to 20 I'd catch some bounce. Ha! Another saying - "if there's a turtle on a fence post, you know it didn't get there by itself" (oh no, that was Hilary this morning). I wonder who she thinks put it there?
