Hey David-

AMR filled at 58 1/16. Was ahead 3/4 points in both airlines, but they both reversed to flat. Covered ORCL just so I could have one trade today that didn't close flat.

Now, about SEEK

I have a spreadsheet set up so that I can pop in the open/low/high and it will give me the short/long triggers. It's divided into two sections- Modified Up and Modified Down. Now by the time I put in the numbers, SEEK was way past its buy trigger of 38 13/16. It ran up so strongly that I thought I could get away with treating it like a gap up with a buy at 41 1/2. Would have worked if I hadn't been asleep at the wheel. I've done this a few times when the sell off and rebound create a situation where the gap down buys are history.
