Thank you for the meticulous post. I will check on the authors you mentioned, and consider sentiment carefully in the next couple of months. The reason for my sentiment question was my recent observation that in the internet or internet related stocks, sentiment (actual or VC generated) may actually move faster than price. Two Canadian inter-listed stocks are possible examples BIDS t.BII Bid.com RIMM t.RIM RIM Now, there is an arbitrage element here, but to simplify, I ignore it. BIDS and RIM have run on volume on NASDAQ before any movement on TSE Good arb possibility, but sentiment is more interesting I actually received ICQ's telling me of NASDAQ BIDS 'action', then one ICQ telling me BIDS was 'running', then called my broker and bought on TSE Strange, but it appears low tech, slow as it is, on this occassion, beat the ticker. So, just to keep my head above water, I figure that; Sentiment--market and ticker News Sector rotation Real time quotes Paper trading are a minimum for the trading process Thanks for your help I'm sure there are plenty of others with similar questions ynot :)
