Hi Tweets,

I have 96,350 shares with stink bids in quarter increments down to $25.25.

If they all hit I'll have a full position at 100,000 shares.

My average cost is $16.30.

At one time before I retired I had 280,000 shares of Cohu.

My account was at Scottrade and they were so worried about an "UNDUE CONCENTRATION" that they limited my margin to 4% of the accounts equity.

So I divided the account and went to Iteractive Brokers and Trade Station.

Scottrade sold out when they owners was diagnosed with cancer and my account went to Interactive Traders. for account keeping purposes. Eventually TDA Ameritrade bought them and they had the Think or Swim Platform, which I have learned to really like. Ultimately TDA sold to Schwab and I just transferred there this month

IAKR paid good money for cash balances and had wonderful executions.

I found their accounting difficult to follow. My commissions were some times free and sometimes not. I never really knew if my profit/loss for the year was correct until the 1099 came with their numbers.

I run tighter than that. It drove me crazy and I did not really have a account contact with them, so I grew accustomed to TDA.

I'll buy some more Cohu depending on how deep the dip goes.

The market maker has complete control and will signal his readiness for a large advance with a brutal dip before the big run up.

I have a projected top of Cohu in the 90's.

Bob
